Module 2 Early River Valley Civilizations-3500 BC- 450 BC Micro Lesson Activity Bundle

Micro Lessons: I organized these lessons to increase engagement in my classroom by having smaller assignments in different formats. I thought this would help keep students engaged longer. What I didn’t expect was for it to make teaching more enjoyable for me. By breaking a lesson into 3-5 parts with different activities, teaching is more enjoyable. Students say the class period seems to go by fast!

Micro Lessons are 15-20 Minute partial lessons over smaller sections of a lesson.
