July 11 Practice Tic-Tac-Toe - Kayleigh Rose
Summary:
Strategy for situations where repeated practice is required and a worksheet just won't cut it. Goal is for students to achieve tic-tac-toe, or fill the entire board, by successfully completing carefully selected problems. Students can monitor their progress, can work at their own pace, and are motivated by the competitive nature of the result. Students reflect on their own work to find mistakes and can collaborate during the process. This also serves as aa formative assessment of understanding where teachers can act on immediately.

Global Math Department (aka MTBoS) is a network of educators across the US and Canada.

I'd also be sharing how educators at PCMI can get involved and begin connecting with the math ed community through a virtual medium.

Observers will also be provided resources for viewing pre-made three-act math templates.
