Lesson tips
Before the lesson, make sure you can access the Sizzle Reel and ensure it will play in your classroom. The video is available within the teaching deck and on the portal in the lesson one section, so check both places to see which is the easiest method for your classroom.
For the group agreements, you’ll reference the Justice League. You can find a picture of the Justice League in the appendix of the Teacher Handbook. It may be helpful and fun for your students to see a visual of superheroes working together.
For the share section, students will be reflecting on what they are most excited about in the program. To build momentum and maintain a sense of enthusiasm throughout the program, you can have students write these thoughts on a sticky note, or directly on a chart paper, and post them in the classroom. This can serve as a reminder of all the great work ahead, as well as keeping the “why” of the program front of mind.
