Your MissionYour Mission• Your mission is to take the 5 lesson plans that you brought
with you tonight and number from 1-6 somewhere on the lesson (the back will be fine – leave space in between each line)
• You will be in groups of 3-4. You will rotate your lesson plans within your group and each person will write two modifications you can make to the lesson to make it more inquiry.
• You will also write on each lesson the unifying science concept that applies.
