Classroom Considerations

• Although the Prezi could be shown to class members, the presentation would work best as a teacher resource
• The worksheets would need to be copied from the slides and then reproduced

Pros

• Skill-building activities include making predictions based on textual evidence and using context to determine the meaning of unfamiliar words

 

Cons

• No link is provided to the templates for the worksheets shown in the presentation
