Student Behavior
Explain: Students will be able to stay in the classroom. All equipment is available in the classroom.
Other: Students will work as partners or individually if needed in the classroom. Students with diverse needs will work with a partner to complete the task. The document camera will be available if the Smartboard is not an option for a diverse learner. Student partners will take turns and students will be expected to give their full attention during demonstrations. The video clip was downloaded (will not be streamed).
