This assignment will give you practice in
team teaching.
In groups of two, you will present a math
lesson for a given grade level. Typically,
a math class can last anywhere from 30 – 50 minutes. You will need to teach for a minimum of 30 minutes.
During
this time you should:
§
Present a “new” concept to the class
through direct teaching
§
Provide an opportunity to practice the
newly learned concept
§
Assess the class on how well the concept
was learned
§
Write a lesson plan.
Please consider information from the
articles that you read, from your texts, and from class discussions.
Hands-on, problem-solving lessons are highly encouraged.
