Today some students began working on rounding in math. Everyone was faced with a challenge because we are using a method to round that many students have not seen before. Some students did an excellent job working through their challenges, asking for help from peers and teachers, and ultimately having some huge light bulb moments. Other students became frustrated and decided to give up. One important part of developing math abilities and knowledge is to make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
