**Please Note: This lesson plan is a ZIP file with several PDFs; they are not editable. The only editable file in this resource is the informative PPT; the doodle notes handouts are not editable. This is to help protect my work and your sanity as there are more layers and textboxes on the handouts than it would seem and tailoring the handouts would take away from the simplicity the lesson is supposed to provide. However, all PDFs can still be used with distance learning by using the mark up tools within the PDF.**
