MAPPPlan instruction

Carefully consider:

• the sub topics that we discussed with the web (or a web your PLC created)…how can you bundle the content into meaningful “chunks” to help with students’ ability to recall the information.

• the number and placement of Readiness v. Supporting Standards

• how you are integrating the processes.

• how you are providing opportunities for your students to transfer their knowledge in new and varied contexts. (consider using your warm ups)
