Trip Planning (Details)  |
Each episode includes a story with real characters that present
a problem that the students must solve. They replay the CD story,
or parts of the story, many times to find all of the necessary
data to solve the problem. Solving a problem usually takes 4
to 5 class periods and is ideal for small group problem solving.
Even students who do not usually perform in math are engaged
and participate. |
