How to use my lessons:

This package includes everything you need. It is designed to accompany Pearson's Math Makes Sense text series. However any text can be used. The teacher projects the handout and completes the notes while teaching the lesson. Students follow along and complete their own handouts. Assignment questions are in the text, or you can create your own.

The lessons are easily converted to Distance learning, the teacher can send the handouts to the students electronically. Then teach the lesson on computer, as the students follow along at home and fill in their notes.

I use a Smart Board, but projecting on a white board works just fine. Bell rings? No problem, simply pick up where you left off last time.
