In class we explored different math problems done by students. Each student modeled a different error within solving the problem. Since I am a math concentration, I find this really interesting. I enjoyed looking at each student's work and analyzing it for where they made a mistake. This is something I will have to be comfortable with when I begin teaching math whether it is at the middle school level or at the elementary level.
I thought this assignment was very similar to the NAEP reteach assignment. The only difference was that the NAEP assignment all students were solving the same problem, whereas this assignment each student was solving a different problem.
Thanks Emma...also in the last assignment, these are common errors that a lot of students make, due to lack of conceptual understanding. Thanks, again:)
