IDEAS FOR USE
I love using Mastery Minis as they are fantastic for
⭐ a quick review
⭐ extension application
⭐ small group spiral sessions
⭐ individual reviews
⭐ re-test qualifiers and more!
These can be given as independent work, a combo of student solo/partner work followed by whole class review, or whole class review. You can even use it for “Roll the Dice” or “Mad Minute” reviews! The possibilities are endless!
Want to have your students complete it digitally? Your purchase includes a Google Slides Digital version as well! This version is great for your LMS or students in a remote/virtual setting.
✨PRO TIP! ✨
- Use interactive notebooks like me?! Well, these fit in perfectly! Simply print the page (full size, landscape 11x8.5), fold it in half, and glue it into the center of your notebook. Voilà! You are set!
