Publisher's Synopsis
The research is in: students make sense of mathematical problems best when they work in small groups, with hands-on experiences that echo real-world situations.
Contains 20-30 sets of activities across several topics. Students work in small groups, moving from station to station every 10-15 minutes, using readily available materials and manipulatives (not included) and concluding with a class discussion to crystalize learning.
Correlated to NCTM standards to complement any math program.
Station Activities include teacher support with discussion guides (prompts to encourage reflection and synthesis of ideas, suggested appropriate responses, and a listing of common errors and misconceptions identified in current research), answer keys and material lists
