They had <strong>to</strong> fac<strong>to</strong>r those trinomials using any of the three methods they learned in class. It is great when<br />
small groups work <strong>to</strong>gether. Mrs. Deiss loves the discussions they have when solving problems and loves<br />
watching how they debate over the best method <strong>to</strong> use. Students feel invested when they are the ones who<br />
get <strong>to</strong> create the problems <strong>to</strong> be solved. They are much more receptive <strong>to</strong> the lesson instead of just<br />
working from the book. One example created is:<br />
Group #1 Created: (2x + 3)(3x + 4)<br />
Group # 2 Multiplied <strong>to</strong> get: 6x 2 + 17x + 12<br />
Group #3 Fac<strong>to</strong>red, using the table method of grouping, <strong>to</strong> get: (2x + 3)(3x + 4)<br />
It’s a Cell-A- Bration! On February 8, 2013, the<br />
students in Ms. McDonald’s Biology class<br />
wrapped up their weeks of learning about the cell<br />
theory and cell parts with a video viewing and<br />
organelle tasting celebration. Each class divided<br />
in<strong>to</strong> groups <strong>to</strong> create a visual presentation about<br />
the cell theory and the parts of the organelle.<br />
Most chose <strong>to</strong> display their artistic styles in song<br />
and dance. Each group presented their work <strong>to</strong><br />
their peers during the cell-a-bration. In addition<br />
<strong>to</strong> the viewing, each student brought in a dish <strong>to</strong><br />
share that reflected an organelle of their<br />
choosing. It could either relate <strong>to</strong> the organelles<br />
structure or function.<br />
