Tube; it should easily be located. Unfortunately, there isn’t a way around this issue. Please watch and use your discernment
on the appropriateness of the presentation for your students, their experiences, and their maturity levels.
o Technology to play the song or show the video.
o Index cards for the “Question Cards” for the reading assignment.
