<div dir="ltr">Hi,<div><br></div><div>We bought a subscription to Factile and used that so students could choose their own questions. Last year we had our practices and competitions virtually. Practices were during lunch and the final battle was after school. We read questions and then sent students into a breakout room to discuss the answer. It took longer than in person, but we were happy to be able to offer the program. </div><div><br></div><div>I'm happy to say that we are in person again. We loved factile and we loved that our battle teams could choose their own questions, so we are using Factile again this year at our in person battles. </div><div><br></div><div>If you have more questions, please feel free to email me directly. <br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><font face="georgia, serif" size="4" color="#000000"><br></font></div><font face="georgia, serif" size="4" color="#000000"><div><font face="georgia, serif" size="4" color="#000000"><br></font></div></font><span><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:13.999999999999998pt;font-family:'Dancing Script',cursive;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:500;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap">Best Regards,</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><b style="font-weight:normal"><br></b></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:13.999999999999998pt;font-family:'Dancing Script',cursive;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:700;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap">Mrs. Kelly Burns-Davis</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap">LRC Director</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap">Cossitt School</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap">115 W.
