2. Directions for the teacher
Each slide contains it’s own separate 20 minute lesson. Each one is a simple, student driven activity. Think “point & shoot”. You may:
choose one slide to present to the class for a whole class assignment. OR
share the entire slideshow with the class; each student chooses their own activity. High interest activities & autonomy often increase engagement :)
The completed assignment could be the student’s EXIT ticket. Please DELETE THIS SLIDE FROM YOUR SLIDESHOW IF YOU CHOOSE TO SHARE IT WITH YOUR CLASS.

3. PREVIEW -
Each slide has icons about the activity indicating the best mode for that particular activity. If the slide has more than one of these icons this indicates that either mode is appropriate or that both items are needed.
Technology required ( a chromebook / phone)
Paper & pencil only
Independent assignment
Small groups or collaborative work
