I think most of our departments use it. Divide your class into two groups. TRIPLE PLAY1. Each team may use their "Triple Play" card three times during the game. BOUNCE BACKBounce Back is a game that my student teacher, Russ Deets, and I created one day in desperation, when we decided that our students needed something new and exciting to do. BLUFFThis is a great game that is also played by many departments in my school. SINK OR SWIMYou form two teams. ZONK! BUMP! 1 vs. 100 - Here is a quick list of how I do things: The aim of the game is for one contestant to answer questions against (class size) others and eventually try to eliminate them all. The 1 is selected (however you want to choose) The player is asked a three-way multiple choice question. The "1" can then give their answer in their own time. The class, has a goal to stay in the game. LUCKY 7Feeling Lucky!

NSDL.org - National Science Digital Library Three Acts Of A Mathematical Story 2016 Aug 6. Here is video of this task structure implemented with elementary students. 2013 May 14. Here’s a brief series on how to teach with three-act math tasks. It includes video. 2013 Apr 12. Storytelling gives us a framework for certain mathematical tasks that is both prescriptive enough to be useful and flexible enough to be usable. Act One Introduce the central conflict of your story/task clearly, visually, viscerally, using as few words as possible. With Jaws your first act looks something like this: The visual is clear. With math, your first act looks something like this: The visual is clear. Leave no one out of your first act. Act Two The protagonist/student overcomes obstacles, looks for resources, and develops new tools. Before he resolves his largest conflict, Luke Skywalker resolves a lot of smaller ones — find a pilot, find a ship, find the princess, get the Death Star plans back to the Rebellion, etc. So it is with your second act. What tools do they have already? Act Three
