We will share teacher-designed problem-based learning (PrBL) mini-units grounded in the Common Core and Mathematical Practices. These mini-units typically take three to five instructional periods and can be a great way to foster students’ reasoning and proof skills. We share design ideas, resources, and some of our units.
