The model I envision is a flipped classroom with an optional at-home option. If kids don't have devices maybe there would be some way to give them time at school (e.g. before school in library). If they don't do that, then they would have independent work as their first rotation in class while those who completed the lesson have their small group and/or teacher-led piece. In rotation, those who did indep. lesson out of class can go on to do an online optional extra extension (or review) activity, as needed.
