Reply To: Lesson 4-4: Sparking Curiosity & Fuelling Sense Making With Additive Thinking – Discussion

[Jeanette Cox]

These lessons engage students on multiple levels of cognitive learning strategies and in particular this lesson engaged in the “new” area of discovery for me–dual-coding which simply means engaging multiple senses particularly visual with verbal and video with audio. Here is a link to these cognitive strategies if anyone is interested. https://lovetoteach87.com/2019/05/02/examples-of-dual-coding-in-the-classroom/ The videos from Kyle’s “Tap Into Teens” as well as Dan Meyer’s and Graham Fletcher are all wonderful lesson examples which as a former k-5 math curriculum coordinator, I would include in various grade level math talks for problem solving. All this information is reaffirming and renewing.
