The latest from our class Instagram account - 3 Act Math

We've been working on some 3 Act Math problems in class this week, and today I challenged the students to figure out how many teddy bear cookies and Goldfish were in the boxes. We had some interesting discussions as different groups had different numbers of each item in their bags (16 vs. 17 cookies; 80 vs. 81 Goldfish), which affected their final answers. However, based on the amount of items each group had in their bag, every group managed to correctly calculate how many should be in the box. Not only that, but they then figured out how many each person on the group should get to share them evenly - in so impressed with my mathematicians! via Instagram http://ift.tt/2jIbg1J
