3rd grade

I presented 3rd grade with another multiplication PBL case from CERTL. This time they are in charge of developing a way to teach their train car a certain fact family. We brainstormed a list of ways to memorize facts, and then students got started. They worked in their plan notebooks to develop a way to accomplish the task.. All students were engaged and looked through the resources available from the CERTL kit (books, tapes, . . .). Today, students were given large sheets of chart paper to plan their presentations. Tomorrow, students will present their plans for helping the train car remember a certain multiplication fact (if they finish their presentations today).
