Next Steps: Begin our presentation using a slideshow with information on how the lessons should take place, how long they should take to complete, examples, etc.
Meeting 7- Week 9
Progress: We met in class today to begin working on the presentation that will go along with our lesson plans. We also decided to transfer our previous lesson plans to a more aesthetically pleasing lesson plan rubric following our battleship theme.
