Facilitation guidance from the lesson plan — what to notice in student thinking and how to respond while teaching.
What to do
Consider using this Initial Ideas Discussion as a formative pre-assessment for Lesson Set 2. See if students can connect M’Kenna’s weight loss to what they figured out in Lesson Set 1 about not getting enough matter inside her body because her villi in her small intestine are damaged. If students do not make this connection right now, that’s OK. They will have the opportunity to do so later on.
