If each activity is supposed to take the 45 minutes, then the pace is reasonable and may be slightly on the fast side.<br />2) The worksheets are very relevant and I especially like the emphasis given to applications, the fact that you are allowing students to discover things for themselves, and the idea of insisting on Big Ideas throughout.<br />Good luck!
