Instructional Ideas

• Use notes within lesson as handouts for learners, and have the class jigsaw to teach each other; two groups can deliver notes, two groups can deliver formative checks, and one group can give next step 
• The notes within the resource feature a comparison of adjectives and adverbs; continue using the strategy within instruction, examples, and formative checks 

Classroom Considerations

• Some students may try to take notes word for word; encourage more efficient notetaking by modeling expectations of notes at the beginning of your direct instruction

Pros

• Notes are straightforward 
• Resource includes an answer key to formative checks

Cons

• None
