2. Super3: it’s like a story…
Plan Beginning
Do Middle
Review End
The Super3 is built on a familiar, story-like pattern to make it easy to remember. Just like a story has a beginning, middle and end, the Super3 also has a beginning, middle and end. In the beginning you will “Plan.” In the middle you will “Do” your work and at the end you will “Review” your work. You can use the Super3 - Plan, Do, Review - anytime you have a problem to solve, a task to complete, or a project to do for school.
