    I really enjoyed it and learned so much, especially with the activities presented and getting to see them executed. I like that they provide flexibility and can be used in different scenarios. I can see myself using them with the kids in the library. They allow for all kinds of learners to participate and feel confident. The activities presented do not give room for students to feel ashamed of their responses (all ideas are welcome) or feel pressured in any way.
