Thank you to everyone for last night! I was really struck by the level of cooperation that was apparent in both activities. I learned from both watching and listening to your comments regarding the volume and surface area activity. I found wisdom in the suggestions that were offered and am open to other insights as I revisit this project and how I will use it in the future. I value the encouragement, to trust in the process of student learning from group work and then revisit the concepts individually for assessment purposes.
I want to thank Bill and Paula for sharing their lessons. I learned that the perimeter will always be an even number and noticed more about patterns with this topic - cool! I learned about integrating GSP with Powerpoint.
It looks like we will hear from Liz, Sara P, Mark P, and Dennis on Monday next. Anyone else?
