I am just now starting Unit 6 and it is my first time teaching it. Any suggestions for how to have a student make up a lesson that uses the circuit board if they were absent? What has worked well for you in the past? Thanks! ---

For me, we have a remediation time built into our school schedule so I am able to call them down during that time, but I realize not all schools have that luxury. I, too, am curious to see how others handle that. I do know that the coding could be done (in theory) without the board, but a little tricky to test it. Mike ---

I opened my classroom before school for students who needed to make up work. They needed to let me know in advance they would be there, so I could make sure I was available. OR I would just have it open certain days.
