Learning EXPERIenCE

3rd grade students used their creative thinking and communication skills to show how they would solve math problems. Each student chose a math concept that they were the "experts" at and explained their thinking.  The end product for this project would be  a class book that will be used as an end of the year study guide.  Independently the students used what they learned from their math book project to create a science collage that highlights what they have learned in science throughout the year.  They incorporated pictures and voice recordings to showcase their knowledge. 

What the student(s) like about this experience: 

"This is a fun, quick, creative, and easy way to show my learning." - Olivia

What the teacher(s) like about this experience:  

I’ve really enjoyed our Book Creator project. My class is always excited to work on it because they get to be creative. They get to pick the pictures they want to use and the ways they solve the math problem. The math review book is amazing! Each student gets to do and explain a problem of a concept that they really understand. This has really helped jump start our math review and has helped spiral review.
