I tell them we do 80-90% of learning and practice in class and HW is to reinforce what they learned. Also, I provided them with the solution so that they can check to see if they are doing it correctly. I do not need students practicing a bunch of problems incorrectly! <br />I like your Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02780826087857023304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4204084687236297188.post-77918664146183958072020-11-16T11:34:25.579-08:002020-11-16T11:34:25.579-08:00Do you have an exemplar that I could use to show m...Do you have an exemplar that I could use to show my students when I start this project?

Off the top of my head, I am thinking I can provide a small library of resources that students can check out. I was definitely thinking of having the last people who were in a role train the next group. However, I think I will keep thinking on other ways. I will post the results :)!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10494494684861904055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4204084687236297188.post-45328605813309341482017-09-02T05:17:01.356-07:002017-09-02T05:17:01.356-07:00Hi Telannia,

I imagine that within this format, math is taught in context of the professions that they are modeling as they "become" the roles. With your deep expertise in math and understanding of the business world, that is a powerful experience for the students.<br /><br />To your Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14886387355000766557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4204084687236297188.post-41181740083939936662017-08-27T13:19:53.047-07:002017-08-27T13:19:53.047-07:00Thanks Stephen!

Some of them might even have that lovely misconception that = means "the answer" so if you ask them to solve 3 + 6 = __ + 8 they will write 9 instead of 1.<br /><br />But I'm not sure that students realize that they are writing lots of equivalent expressions Max Rayhttp://mathforum.org/blogs/maxnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4204084687236297188.post-58705440367276150232013-09-18T07:55:52.393-07:002013-09-18T07:55:52.393-07:00I always incorporate graphing along with the algeb...I always incorporate graphing along with the algebraic solutions as well.

As a veteran teacher of 14 years I was looking for change. My district recruited me to be a member of something new called the TSTEM academy. I was intrigued and nervous but being one never to shy away from a challenge, I was all in.
