15 minutes  Transition practice with word problems
 Have buddy handout answer sheets while giving the instructions
 “There are word problems related to these concepts posted throughout the
room. Attempt as many as you can in the next 20 minutes. You can start
wherever you like, just make sure the card number matches the number
you’re answering on your answer sheet. Before you start, please have your
homework from last night opened on your desk”

health <check what they’re working on>”

Strengths
 The review was needed and went well
 The task cards offered a nice opportunity for students to practice word problems and work together to solve some
more challenging examples
Lesson  The timing of the lesson worked well
Reflection
Areas of Improvement
 Need to practice getting comfortable using the document camera for interactive note taking
 Need to circulate class throughout the note taking process to ensure that all students are indeed taking notes
