Just before the period ends, you may wonder: Do my students really understand what we covered? Do they remember where we started, and what we just discussed? 🤔 🧵Thread adapted from this article: edut.to/3OiGtsE 1/12

You *can* finish each class as strongly as you started it. Try optimistic closures, which allow students to connect, reflect, and look forward as you wrap for the day. 💫
