Meet the Team Night

Today's blog is for our "Meet the Team Night;" a brief demonstration for one type of homework assignment later this fall.

In order to better prepare students for upcoming concepts or to review concepts, watching a video and taking notes will be a homework assignment on some nights during the year. The media sometimes refers to this as "flipped classroom," and naturally there are a variety of ways in which this can be utilized or delivered. Prior to assigning this as a homework assignment, I will be teaching students HOW to take notes from a video for math. Thus, I expect that sometime around the middle of October, this will be assigned.

This is a SAMPLE clip that could be used:

Watch this short clip on Order of Operations. Take notes, as we have discussed in class and be prepared to share your notes tomorrow. Watch the clip as many times necessary in order to understand the ideas. CLICK ON THIS SHADE TEXT TO CONNECT WITH THE LINK.
