Clip 3/43: Standard 6: Attend to Precision Using Multiplication & Division Part 2C

Overview

In the elementary grades, students give carefully formulated explanations to each other.

After her 3rd-grade students work individually on various problems, Buljan invites them to “find the other people who have your problem and see if they agree with you.” In their conversations, the students explain their thinking clearly to each other, striving to reach consensus about the best approach and solution to a problem.
