Reply To: Lesson 6-2: Question

I agree with the idea of spiraling and giving students continued exposure to concepts over time. However, I also feel like I’m one of those people who are tied to the idea of using units to organize material for my course (and maybe that’s just it – I need to feel a sense of organization in what I’m doing and teaching my students).

So I guess my question is, how do you commit to unblocking your content and still feeling like you are doing things in a somewhat organized manner?

Similarly, what do assessment cycles look like in this type of classroom? Weekly quizzes and cumulative exams at regular intervals? Although I may not completely shift my class to this style this year, I’m curious about how to make the shift for the future!! 🙂
