Making Sense of Expressions...Carousel Style

Here is a video from a fellow math teacher at the high school level using the 'carousel' technique while teaching his class about expressions.  While viewing this video, you may ask yourself:

• How could you use this easy and effective activity with another math concept?
• How does the rotation with Mr. Walker efficiently allow for identifying and addressing learning gaps?
• How and what can students learn from each other as they work through each rotation?
If you want more...click on the title displayed in the video window and it will bring you to the actual Teaching Channel video page.  Notice the Common Core State Standard in red print at the top left corner of the video.  Hover over it and it displays the standard!  And don't miss the accompanying lesson plan and lesson materials supplied at the bottom right side of the web page.
