Additional Lessons Submitted by Teachers Click here to access our additional lessons. As teachers use the Exemplary Units, they have been making tweaks and sharing them with us. We love that! Teachers have also been sharing with us their great ideas for lessons. This is a repository where we will be putting those tweaks and shared lessons. Each of the lessons is tied to NGSS, SEEd, and our district Exemplary Units. Please explore, use, and tweak these lessons!
