Presentation Screens can help you guide and facilitate student learning by presenting activity screens to your class directly from an activity landing page.
You can find suggested teacher moves and the Student Edition (SE) PDF embedded in the screens from the preview and in presentation mode.
You can also use the Teacher Edition to support students working on print lessons. Presentation screens are also provided for every print lesson. Project the screens in the front of the room while students work on their print lesson.
