Reply To: Lesson 1 – Which Is Bigger? – Discussion

[Susan Ethridge]

I personally have always loved working with anything having to do with spatial reasoning. I love all types of puzzles. I grew up playing board games and blocks. My dad built things and I watched and “helped”. My mom and I always played “Find the differences” in the daily paper. All this to say, I think that is why one of my strengths is spatial reasoning and why I agree with others here in the importance of focusing on attributes. One thing I have been doing is using “Which one doesn’t belong” picture groups with students notice more details and different attributes and perspectives in the pictures and relate it to the world around us.
