Final Project Part I:

 

Lesson presentation. (10% of course grade)

 

Each of you will present a lesson from the Contemporary Mathematics in Context (Core-Plus) curriculum. The lessons are assigned below and I will provide you with copies of the teacher's guide and student text for the section you are responsible for.  I would be happy to meet prior (usually a day or two before) to your presentation to clarify any questions and review your plan. You might find this very helpful.  Each lesson is expected to last approximately 30 minutes.

 

We will be presenting two lessons during each class beginning April 17, and will continue for the remainder of our class meetings. An overview of the expectations and assessment instrument will be distributed on March 22.
