Remote and Online Instruction

To support remote instruction, we have created a role assignment template for educators. This form digitally links to the lesson's geographical clues and allows instructors to assign student groups by entering each of their names into the left-hand column. Add or remove spaces to fit your classroom size. When you access the document (in Google docs), it will lead you to make a copy.
