Today in math the students worked together to choose 1 attribute of a shape (curved lines, points, etc.). They used this attribute as the “target” to compare the other shapes to. Once they found other shapes that matched the “target”, they pasted them all together and decided on a sorting rule. (Some students extended this learning by having 2 attributes to use as their target.).
Through this activity the students were able to:
-apply developing reasoning skills to make and investigate conjectures
-communicate mathematical thinking (orally)
