Oceny i komentarze
Is there a printable version of the recording sheet anywhere?
Ran it twice this term with very different groups and it held up both times. That is rare.
Yes! The materials tab has a printable. Look under the practice phase.
Thanks, this is really helpful feedback.
Beautifully sequenced. The misconceptions listed in the teacher notes were exactly the ones my class walked in with.
Totally agree, the wrap-up is the strongest part.
It works fine without the lab kit — I demoed the tricky step at the front and the rest is paper-based.
Please do share the translation, that would help a lot of us.
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.
Good to know the hook travels — I will try that.
