143- Get Your Model On: Using 3-Act Tasks In Elementary School

Wednesday, November 2, 2016: 8:00 AM-9:00 AM
Salon G (Philadelphia Marriott Downtown)

 

Lead Speaker:
Graham J. Fletcher

By engaging in 3-act tasks, participants will leave with a deeper understanding of the modeling process and how to ensure it’s happening in their classrooms.
