We will work on a rich set of problems we’ve used successfully in high-needs schools. These problems, focusing on the Common Core Standards for Mathematical Practice, require spatial reasoning, organization of data, & generalized solutions. We share student work, including how one school used these problems as the basis for a school math symposium.
Presentation Format: 6-8 Gallery Workshop
