SNOWFLAKE LESSON TYPES

Students place items in a sequential order; well suited for events

in a story, timeline events, steps of a math problem, etc.

appears at the top of the screen, and then select the correct
responses by tapping the corresponding bugs. Cards on the back of
the bugs can display text, image and text, image only, or video.
