Below is a slide deck to not only help you learn more about today's content focus, but can also be used for a mini-lesson with students (you may need to modify based on the age of your students, but serves as a starting point). It will include part 1 from above (ENGAGE) as well as part 3 from below (EXTEND).
Note: When viewing the presentation in slide view in Google Slides, make sure to check the "Speaker Notes" section for any sources cited, comments, or additional information.
