Kagan Corner - New Structure Time!
Numbered Heads Together is a perfect structure to review content before a unit assessment. The short video below models this structure using Kagan software. Great news, you don't need the software to implement the structure. However, if you would like to install it, I have it and am MORE than happy to share. :)
