Name • School • What you teach • Pick One: • How far is your school toward implementing the Common Core State Standards in Math? • Why you are interested in WI-MTTI? • Other plans for this summer. Introductions
Turning Point Technology Demo (switch to another PowerPoint)
Free Ride* from illuminations.nctm.org • Free Ride is a good place to start – experiment and see how the gear ratios work. • Choose Route – This is the challenge. To land on all the flags, and then to do it efficiently keeping the “Pedal Count” less than or equal to “Course Par.” • Random Route – This is a random challenge. *online activity Activity
