Teaching Thoughts
These are a few bonus thoughts- keep scrolling for more!
Have some fun by teaching your class "in jail." Simply use your classroom table and a long table with crepe paper stripes for the bars.
Also see the Choose the Right ideas from Lesson 13 and if you discover more great things.
Use the story timeline included in the Red Headed Hostess class packet to help your class follow along.
