Worksheets: for class and for home
Every structure that trains a learning strategy on paper comes with a sheet the class fills in while it runs. And every way of learning comes with a sheet for home: the same strategy, with this week’s material. All sheets are free, as PDF, no account needed.
Print on A4 unless A3 or A5 is shown. The sheets have no solid colour fills, so black-and-white printing works too.
In class
Each sheet comes with the structures in which the class fills it in. One click puts the structure on the board, with an example you can run straight away. Below, grouped by way of learning.
