Contra notes: The box gnats / swat fleas in the B part should be underatood as underarm turns that trade participants' places. When teaching, make sure you have the 2s identify themselves - they're doing the underarm turning, the 1s are getting turned. West coast notes: put anchor steps into the balances to find the easter eggs.
