Reaching a Consensus

Today in math, Room 11 students became the teachers! Students worked in groups to solve a math task from our SWUN math program.  The students should be so proud of the way they worked together to solve their problems! Discussions were thoughtful and respectful and each student had a chance to share their method of solving the problem.

 

The students learned how to reach a consensus (all agreeing on the answers to the problems) by discussing how their method of solving the problem worked. Diagrams were drawn, equations were written, and articulate explanations were given! 

Once a consensus was reached, students prepared a presentation for the class on how they solved their problem. It was so great to see each group work together to share the information they had learned!
