  8. The Meatball Problem Act 2 What information do you need to know to solve the problem? Now SOLVE the problem

  9. The Meatball Problem Act 3

  10. This is from Discovering Geometry 22. Application A prep chef has just made two dozen meatballs. Each meatball has a 2-inch diameter. Right now, before the meatballs are added, the sauce is 2 inches from the top of the 14-inch-diameter pot. Will the sauce spill over when the chef adds the meatballs to the pot?

  11. MEATBALLS: The Thought Processby Dan Meyer What I Did (in 6 steps)… Basically, I three-acted the heck out of it. Which means: • Reduce the literacy demand. Let's encode as much of the text as we can in a visual. • Add perplexity. That visual will attempt to leave students hanging with the question, "What's going to happen next?"

  12. MEATBALLS: The Thought Processby Dan Meyer • Lower the floor on the task. The problem as written jumps straight to the task of calculation. We can scaffold our way to the calculation with some interesting concrete tasks. • Add intuition.Guessing is one of those lower-floor tasks and this problem is ready for it.

  13. The Thought Process • Add modeling. We'll ask students "what information would be useful here?" BEFORE we give them that information. That's because the first job of modeling (as it's defined by the CCSS) is "identifying variables in the situation and selecting those that represent essential features." The task as it’s written now does that job for students.

  14. The Thought Process • Create a better answer key.Once we've committed to a visual representation of the task, it'll satisfy nobody to read the answer in the back of the book. They'll want to watch the answer.
