We've just defined the Representation Standard in more detail. Now we'd like you to write about the standard.
Questions to write and reflect about:
- What are some effective methods of representation your students use to solve problems and communicate their thinking?
- As students explore more complex mathematical concepts in the middle grades, what are some non-conventional representations they might use?
- What specific things do you do in your classroom to encourage students to use appropriate representations as they complete mathematical tasks?
- Why do you think representations help students develop a deeper understanding of the mathematical concept(s) they are learning?
Three ways to write and reflect:
- Use pen and paper.
- Use a word processor.
- Use the form below.
Be sure to save what you have written before you navigate out of the journal section.
Thanks for writing in your journal. Please keep your entries in whatever format you choose -- you will find them useful for reference later.
