Oceny i komentarze
Would this work a year group down with more scaffolding, or is the reading level too high?
The assessment rubric alone was worth it. I have reused it across three other lessons since.
That is a fair point about the sourcing — I have listed two substitutes in the materials now.
Totally agree, the wrap-up is the strongest part.
Noted, I will add a timing warning to the description.
