How is In Focus organized?
In Focus has three levels: K–2, 3–5, and 6–8.
Each level has three parts, targeting the needs of different parts of the human brain.
How are the lessons organized?
In Focus provides brief (10–15 minute) lessons, four times per week, for each week of the school year.
Each lesson starts with a "Focus of the Day," such as "Learning About the Brain." The section "Background Knowledge" helps you fully understand the activity you will present. The "Activity of the Day" provides blue scripting that you can read or paraphrase, as well as parenthetical instructions for the activity. You'll also find a "Quote of the Day," "Resources Required," and a "Teacher Self-Reflection" to deepen your learning.
Is In Focus a print or online product?
