As we are developing Common Core Lessons, we are sharing AVID Weekly articles and strategies. Fabulous stuff! I tried out a lesson for the first time, and I realized how un-rigorous my course was if one of your lessons can be done in one period. I asked my class how they liked the rigor, and they surprised me with comments like: we weren t bored, we weren t wasting time, it was fast, but we liked it that way. WOW. Thanks for all the work prepping the lessons and articles thus far; this is one of the best resources I have used with my middleschoolers.
