Math ReasoningGone Wrong How to build mathematical reasoning among our students? By Dan Meyer (Video from TED conference) http://www.ted.com/talks/dan_meyer_math_curriculum_makeover.html
Looking for Patterns • Look for patterns • Relate patterns to existing formulas • Compare generalizations on both cube and rectangular prism • Make predictions
Growing Prisms Part 2 When only one or two dimensions are changing Can you predict the effect on Surface Area and Volume?
Ice Breaker Enjoy and Have Fun!
From Cubes to Rods How quickly can you solve for the Surface Area and volume of each piece of rod? Is there an algebraic pattern that you can create out of your data? How about solving for SA and V of irregular objects?
Area of Irregular Shapes Fun activity for students and it will enhance their understanding of Area.
Maximum Play Area? Open ended problem Dimension/Area/Perimeter Quadratic Functions/Maximizing and Minimizing
Reflect & Debrief What instructional Strategies were demonstrated in this session? Which activity or activities will you bring back to your classroom? Did you find something for your personal growth?
