They can go to the sticky notes to help them talk and share out what they learned from their book.
It's also important to show them guidelines on how to use the sticky notes properly.]]> 2017-11-09 18:49:03 UTC https://padlet.com/tderiso/gradelevelsamplefocuslesson/wish/205443494 julie_davia https://padlet.com/tderiso/gradelevelsamplefocuslesson/wish/205444932
