“Each circle of the concept map is going to have a question that either
relates to the center topic or to another circle that it is connected to. The
idea is to try to think of the concepts we learned throughout this week and
how they connect to each other.

“Are there any questions?”

Have the student complete the Concept Map Quiz for the remainder of the
class. Circulate and answer any questions.

Closure:
1 min “Great work today! We will be finishing up this Topic of the unit on
Monday.”

Management Plan: • Utilize wait time to ensure that students are listening to directions and any
