Eg 2 groups chose WALT: order fractions and decimals And the other 2 groups chose WALT: order numbers to 1000 / 1,000000
This is what they had to do - and just think about all the knowledge and skills they had to have (Over and above the maths knowledge)
Step One - find a video that taught them what they needed to know. They could choose youtube, Khan Academy, Study Ladder or Teacher Tools for videos.
Step Two - create a google presentation explaining what they have learnt. They have a booking form they use to request teaching time if they cannot figure out a concept on their own. I can call down individuals or groups who have similar needs.
Step Three - create a google form with questions that will check if people have learnt the subject matter. They only answered google forms from within their own ability maths group.
Step Four - Embed the presentation AND the form into a new blog post. Change the height in the HTML code so that viewers can see the whole presentation and form.
Step Five - Check the form responses to see who is correct and who still needs a bit of help. They are then going to email the respondents saying 'Well done!' or 'You need a bit more help with'.
So many little skills that they had to remember, check, ask for help and then edit. But amazingly they have nearly all completed this.
I AM SO PROUD!! Check out their awesome work below and fill in their google forms. Please feel free to give feedback if you find errors but remember to make it KIND feedback!
What a neat way to learn maths. You have explained your WALTs well and what they mean. I might try this idea with my class.
