One-on-One Activity, Group Activity | 15 minutes


Every student has their unique comfort, learning, and discomfort zones in their math learning journey. Our role as educators is to find the sweet spot of support that lands students in their unique learning zone. This Green, Yellow, and Red Lights activity aims to help tutors/educators support their students by developing an understanding of how students feel about different aspects of math.
