Students groups create scientific research posters to professionally present the results of their AQ-IQ research projects, which serves as a conclusion to the unit. (This activity is also suitable to be conducted independently from its unit—for students to make posters for any type of project they have completed.) First, students critically examine example posters to gain an understanding of what they contain and how they can be made most effective for viewers. Then they are prompted to analyze and interpret their data, including what statistics and plots to use in their posters. Finally, groups are given a guide that aids them in making their posters by suggesting all the key components one would find in any research paper or presentation. This activity is suitable for presenting final project posters to classmates or to a wider audience in a symposium or expo environment. In addition to the poster-making guide, three worksheets, six example posters, a rubric and a post-unit survey are provided.

Steve Hinds demonstrates how a teacher can circulate and question students to assess their understanding, get them to explain and evaluate each other's thinking, and guide them in productive directions without telling them what to do.

This video, effective for engaging students with significant cognitive disabilities, demonstrates predictable chart writing.

Students are able to illustrate the commutative property and articulate the differences and similarities between two models demonstrating the same pair of facts. The lesson includes a detailed plan, samples of student work, a video of students engaged in the lesson, printable worksheets, and differentiated independent student work.

Presents an example of the commutative property of multiplication and several practice questions along with explanations of their solutions.

This task is meant to address a common error that students make, namely, that they represent fractions with different wholes when they need to compare them. This task is meant to generate classroom discussion related to comparing fractions. Particularly important is that students understand that when you compare fractions, you implicitly always have the same whole.

Fractions with the same denominator are compared with and without visual models. [3:10]
