How these Do Nows work
A Do Now is the task on the desk as students walk in: five minutes of retrieval from memory, then a two-minute review. Every page has the same layout and the same instruction, so nothing needs explaining at the door.
Each key knowledge point has its own Do Now, with all three questions inside that one point, so you can use them in whatever order you teach. Each group of related points also has a linked Do Now that mixes them: use it a week or more later for spaced retrieval.
The answers file gives the keys, the misconception each question is built to expose, a mark-by-mark scheme, a sample response and what to do if most of the class misses it.
