📖 Explain: Teach concepts - Demonstrate proper form, explain rules, TEKS connections, character focus on perseverance.
🚀 Elaborate: Apply/extend - Full game play with variations, leadership roles, cross-curricular connections (math scoring).
✅ Evaluate: Assess learning - Check understanding of skills, character development, TEKS mastery (observe shooting).
