We are testing all of the time, some of my classes I do not get to see but once during the District testing. However, I have incorporated some of the unplugged from Unit 1 into my lesson plans, utilizing the worksheets as an extra reinforcement to our general lesson. I would like to start on Unit 2 and Unit 3 before the end of the school year]]> 2018-03-17 14:01:50 UTC https://padlet.com/kim_gordon/mgzv26hksb0l/wish/243076404 Pat https://padlet.com/kim_gordon/mgzv26hksb0l/wish/243079547 2018-03-17 14:30:52 UTC https://padlet.com/kim_gordon/mgzv26hksb0l/wish/243079547 Pat https://padlet.com/kim_gordon/mgzv26hksb0l/wish/243079569 Getting students interested in the activities.]]> 2018-03-17 14:31:05 UTC https://padlet.com/kim_gordon/mgzv26hksb0l/wish/243079569 Pat https://padlet.com/kim_gordon/mgzv26hksb0l/wish/243079570 2018-03-17 14:31:05 UTC https://padlet.com/kim_gordon/mgzv26hksb0l/wish/243079570
