Suggestions for use: If it is used as a teaching module, that module can be as short as six weeks or as long as three months. You could have 40 minute classes 3 or 4 times a week or you might have 2 one hour classes. Most “lesson” blocks are estimated as 40-60 minute blocks. From that you can anticipate the number of weeks you will need. Therefore these lesson plans, which are designed to accompany the workbook, should be used in whatever way suits your time constraints and your class group’s interest and ability.
