Orienteering: Blazing Our Trail

Session Goals• Develop a strategy to create open

tasks related to proportional reasoning in order to differentiate instruction.

• Develop strategies to create appropriate scaffolding questions.

Bansho - Consolidation of Learning

• Bansho is a way to share student work and to acknowledge the continuum of learning.

• We will use your work from this morning’s session to collaboratively Bansho our learning.

A Little Refresher…• While watching this clip, please consider

the following statement: “Some ambiguity in questions is useful to initiate a richer conversation”. How is this illustrated in this clip?

Open Questions & Scaffolding• The following question is based on BIN 3 • “There are many equivalent representations for a
