There are Poetry Slams, so why not Math Slams?
Have you heard of a Math Slam? Probably not, because I made it up!
My students are each taking a turn at being the teacher in these final weeks of school! They are picking from a long list of math concepts we've learned this year... After choosing their topic, they prepare a short lesson and teach the rest of us!
Some topics include:
Comparing & Ordering Fractions
Place Value
Long Division
Adding and Subtracting Decimals
Elapsed Time
So far, they are having a blast with it! They are very creative teachers indeed! I have enjoyed being the student along with them in our final days together. We all add the new notes to our "Super Mathematician Notebooks," and then I am ready to send them on their way to 5th grade! Ok, well, I'm not actually ready to send them on, but I'll cross that bridge when I must.
