Preparing for the Math Performance Festival

Teachers planning for the Festival, and singing some songs too!

We met in the morning and used How to Write and Perform a Math Poem to write 3 poems. Then after lunch we performed and recorded them as songs and chants. See a rubric (pdf) prepared by the teachers for assessing students' mathematical performances.
