*Check*Goal met. I worked on this while teaching lessons, which always seems like the appropriate time. I compiled some research about existing methods that work. I notice that children's books and adult books teach the content backwards from each other, which I find interesting. I wonder if that's based on educational research, or if it's just an arbitrary order that the publisher chose.
