3. The Challenge

 As we head into and out of this break, be mindful of the tools that will help you harness student engagement and provide assessment and re-teaching opportunities. When teen and pre-teen brains have let loose of some of the concepts we've taught, consider tech tools like Kahoot and Quizizz that can help refocus and remind those young minds!
