Student Accountability

  1. Provide a potpourri of similar problems
  2. Each student picks 1 problem and finds a strategy
  3. Share strategy with an assigned friend. Vice Versa.
  4. Repeat (2x) with the same problem.

How often? When?

  • Protocols are meant to be repeated. Learn the protocol.
    • Do an entire protocol in as few days as possible (4 days).

    • What is upcoming in the curriculum?
    • What skills could use a deeper understanding or more strategies?

​

  • First 10 minutes of class.
    • Replaces homework review, fluency, application problem, ...
