Teacher Notes (not visible to students)

We encourage teachers to review key ideas in an interactive, collaborative way with the entire class as much as possible. Consider extending the sorting activity on Page 7 to a class discussion to investigate how some things may include some and exclude others. Students can also be encouraged to add in their own ideas as well.
