Question: As a teacher presenting the Tool-Kit to other teachers, do I have to create anything?

• opening the English Language Arts Standards

• offer resources for each step in the process

Answer: No, just a willingness to learn, to present in front of your peers.

Question: Do I need to be an expert in the creation of unit plan?
