Support
Complete the first item together, highlight the key word or visual clue, then fade the prompt.
Stretch
Ask for an explanation using the topic words, then add one new example. Create a new example that follows the same idea, then explain how it works.
Check for understanding
Ask for two answers without the word bank or answer view, then correct misconceptions briefly.
