Ratings & comments
The assessment rubric alone was worth it. I have reused it across three other lessons since.
Good bones, and the slides are clean enough to project without editing. I trimmed the discussion to fit a 45-minute period.
Totally agree, the wrap-up is the strongest part.
Same here — back-to-back is the way to go.
