(Kathie's notes: While Marie's unit looks a bit more like the "contract for grade" sheets from a few decades ago, it is an excellent unit to glean ideas from. It could easily be turned into a Layered Curriculum just by requiring more complex thinking at the B and A layers rather than just additional C layer work)
