Directions:

• Prepare a pocket folder for each student in the class. Some lessons require additional folders for each team working on an activity. Label them "Interview Folder -- For the Teacher for _________" and add students' names.
• Insert a Journal. Use a steno pad, or notebook sheets with lines drawn down the middle, or sheets of paper with line down middle, and stapled together. Students use left side for notetaking and right side for reflections.
• Insert copies of each form below. Note that some forms are needed in several lessons, so make multiple copies as indicated if you are doing all the lessons. It would be helpful to copy Forms 4 - 10 on a different color of paper so they can be easily identified and found.
