Study Them... Study Them...
The cue cards for each station can be selected to the left. I don't expect you to memorize any of the information, but please read each card a couple of times so you are familiar with the type of information you will encounter while teaching the station, and so you can get a sense of the flow of each lesson.
Remember ALL the cue cards are designed to be read by the Student Leader OR the student. This means you can hand the cue card to a student, and they can read each part for you, leaving your hands and eyes free to handle equipment, point things out, demonstrate concepts, and manage student behavior.
On each cue card page, you will also find a link to extra tips and hints for teaching that particular station - stuff you won't find on the cue card. Each station has different information, exists in a different building, and has different types of equipment. All of that can add up to a complex teaching situation. Read the extra tips and hints and you will be on your way to a more succussful lesson.
