Currently, teaching Hands On Equations to a class of gifted third grade students at the Trinity Academy School in Hartford, Connecticut. Hands-On Equations is a supplementary program that can be used with any math curriculum to provide students with a concrete foundation for algebra. It uses the visual and kinesthetic instructional approach developed by Dr. Henry Borenson to demystify abstract algebraic concepts. This hands-on, intuitive approach enhances student self-esteem and interest in mathematics.
I am also co-presenting Project Based Learning program at the Trinity Academy School with a class of eighth grade students which are engaged in researching and inquiring about “Sneakers” in order to obtain a deeper knowledge about all the aspects of how they impact the real world.
Are the 8th graders engaged in inquiry and research about “Sneakers” the shoes, or is there another kind of sneakers?
Yes, “Sneakers” the shoes. Great question! They are a global footwear and the styles keep getting more and more elaborate, colorful, etc. Big Business Folks!
Hello Ruth, I am reminded that your question about sneakers showed that you were using Thinking Tip 2 “Know When You Need More Information” from my book Nimble Thinking. We are selling a new updated version for $5.00 plus $1.93 shipping and handling costs. See website for more information.
Thanks, and tell your friends.
