  • Visual models make strong sense-making tools and promote a conceptual understanding that develops procedural fluency. The focus of this Gallery Workshop is to examine some of the most effective models for problem solving: problem strings, ratio tables, and open number lines. We will examine the role of teacher as learning facilitator.
