Focus on Writing in Math Class

After the SBAC testing Math students were engaged in writing about concepts and their favorite Mathematicians and math concepts.  The task requires research, drafting a five paragraph essay using the Jane Schaffer framework, and preparing a presentation using Power Point or other software.

Student use their close reading and annotation skills to help prepare their writing strategies.  Student's have come a long way and the project brings about interesting conversation with students learning math using engaging activities.  This year math has been fun and engaging for all students in the California Model Continuation High School.  We are Math Warriors.
