I teach Algebra for mostly Freshman in High School. This is only my second year of teaching. Watching this video made me realize how many of my students didn’t master this concept. And now I have a work to call it and can start addressing it with them. Potential issues that I am facing: I need to follow the district curriculum, which leaves little room for “extras”. The curriculum doesn’t help my students “catch-up” or recover from miss-conceptions they have accumulated over the years. And my students have a low math stamina so I have been looking to change my approach with them. I want them to see math as a tool to better their lives and not just a class to get their HS degree Achievable?
