Buyer Comments:

- "This is such a great idea! Admin has "suggested" every class begin with a Do Now which can be extremely time-consuming, especially since I teach 4 different courses (Ap Physics, APES, General Environmental & Living Environment)! Because the prompts are general they can really be used in all my classes (with small adjustments for AP)."

- "I just started using this resource. I love all the resources I have downloaded from TWF and this one doesn't disappoint! I use the daily warm-ups as intended but I have extended Monday activities to be an APA practice exercise. My students are learning science in English and are bilingual learner, Spanish spoken at home and half their academic subjects are in English. This is a good fit for them as it works with different levels of English."

- "My students and I enjoyed this, thank you for the great resource!"

Your resources come in Google Slides, PowerPoint, and PDF formats and include a student workbook where they can record their daily answers.
