Ratings & comments
Not a perfect fit for my curriculum, but adapting it took twenty minutes instead of an evening.
Setup was about ten minutes for me once the materials were out on the bench.
Thanks, this is really helpful feedback.
Quick note: I swapped the video for a live demo and it worked just as well if you don't have a projector.
Beautifully sequenced. The misconceptions listed in the teacher notes were exactly the ones my class walked in with.
