I don't teach geometry, but I thought they would be fun to pull out every once in a while and play with in algebra. So, when groups finished the task early, I handed each student a bag of tangrams and instructed them to build a square using all of the pieces. That managed to keep them quite occupied and frustrated. :) Sarah Carter (@mathequalslove)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11839095945000612533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1091979517567705761.post-66643888328124923652013-08-14T13:25:36.596-05:002013-08-14T13:25:36.596-05:00I am so glad to see your feedback about 31-derful....I am so glad to see your feedback about 31-derful. I am a first year teacher and was thinking about doing it with my Algebra 1 class. I am also curious about if you have tried your laminator yet...I purchased the same one but haven't received it yet. I read your blog all of the time and am using some of your things for my classroom so thank you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1091979517567705761.post-40913587266131102562013-08-14T10:42:12.919-05:002013-08-14T10:42:12.919-05:005 Easy pieces sounds like a great first day activi...5 Easy pieces sounds like a great first day activity! I think I will squeeze that one in. One question that I struggled with in my first year was what to do with groups that finished early. You mentioned some finished in 1/2 the time. What did you have them do? vanvleettvhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04519939310803820382noreply@blogger.com
