A value between 2 and 3 bicycles. But then do the same thing with the time graph, for example (2, $30) could be in 2 hours you make $30, then look at 3hr etc. Can you work for 2.5hrs?

Maybe have 2 graphs, one with time on the x-axis and one with bicycles on the x-axis (y can be whatever). Examine some of the data points, ex (2,50) means 2 bicycles cost $50 to rent (or whatever). Then ask about a few other points. Can you rent 2.5 bicycles? Why/why not? So there's not really...

Was thinking of making one before my Math 3s jump into the unit circle....

That's cool! Where do you find these problem sets?

Sorry, the strategy is complex instruction, and you can find some of the research online, but the book is Designing Group Work. a.co/d/6jNX89T

Curious to know more! Hs math teacher

Math Medic has great lessons and is open source.

Haha! Yup.

Great ideas were generated and then I gave them the list of questions and common biases to match/label. Great ideas and conversations, even hearing ideas from students that normally hang back during group time.

Yes! Love that post! We've been doing some visual patterns already, but maybe I'll do that for the next one.

Oh is that one of the prequels? I forget all the names, lol. I love Sanderson. The Stormlight Archives is a series (epic fantasy-really long books). It's fantastic! If you want to start with something smaller though a lot of people start with his Mistborn series.

Oh nice! I've read his Riyria books! Sooo good! I'll have to check that one out. Currently doing a reread of the Stormlight Archice by Brandon Sanderson before the next book comes out in Dec.

Hello! I teach high school math and also love fantasy books! What are you currently reading?

Cool! Sounds similar to how a few of if in my dept are working. We currently don't have a math lab/support class though... no room right now in the schedule. Hopefully soon though.

I'd love to hear more details about this! What grade? And does that mean you're doing this each day during math class or is it organized differently? And are you using number talks or anything in particular?

I agree! My curriculum (CPM) often uses stories and even when I think they're corny the (HS) kids still like them. Looked at the website but doesn't seem like they have much for HS. :(

We were able to compare methods during consolidation and when one approach might be better than the others. (The graph group actually used desmos and then just sketched it on their board.)

We switched! I started out in MS for 10 years and am currently teaching HS. And I agree group work is tricky. The book "Complex Instruction" was really helpful to me and now I also do Building Thinking Classrooms.
