If you’re looking to flip your classroom or are teaching online, you’ll be interested in using my Complete Lesson Walkthrough Videos. To simplify this document, I’ve added the lesson videos as homework which can be assigned if desired.
If you decide to use the video lessons I would suggest you spend the first 10-15 minutes of class the next day to review the key concepts.
