Republican politicia Newt Gingrich is known to tell a story about a lion and a field mouse; a lion can use his hunting skills to easily capture a field mouse with ease any time he desires, but at the end of the day, no matter how many mice he’s gotten, he will still be starving. What Newt’s story means: sometimes despite the risk and the work needed, it’s worth our time to go for the antelope.

Building in time for learners to process what they have learned. Selecting three to five key concepts to focus on.
