Editor's Notes
- #2: Intro High 5 Please! – teacher raises hands, focus fully on teacher, signal others (3-5 seconds)
- #3: Tell them your name and answer if you were not a teacher what would you be? Your group finds another group and introduce your partner and tell what your partner would be if they were not a teacher? Teams of 4 sit together.
- #8: P – teammates outcomes are linked I-student performs on his/her own, product must be seen by someone else, individual performance is required E-everyone participates, how can you monitor that? S – no one is “sitting” “waiting”
- #9: No one opts out! Video is hyperlinked
- #10: Take a look at these shapes and determine which one best represents you. Draw your shape on your paper and explain why. Starting with team member 3, roundrobin (share your answers). Explain the meaning of each shape
