It’s ok to go onto the next page…BUT* Remember the left-side, right-side orientation- Always begin a new unit or Lesson on the left-side* Try alternate folding & Gluing methodS* You don’t have to include everything- Is it essential to their understanding or simply additional practice with a concept? - If we left it out, would students still be able to pass a test on the subject? - Is it a group project? - Is it too large to fit?
