Tag I’m it.



Rick over at Fuzzy’s Dad tagged me with the book worm award. Since I am sitting at my computer the nearest book to me is a text book. It is “Elementary and middle school mathematics. Teaching developmentally.

So here it is the fifth sentence on page 56 followed by the next few sentences. “Other lessons may begin with a statement of the problem and may or may not have a readiness activity. The kinds of things you do in the before portion of a lesson will vary with the task. Some tasks you can begin with immediately. For example, if your students are used to solving story problems and know they are expected to used, pictures, and numbers to explain their solutions in writing, all that may be required is to reads through the problems with them and by sure all understand it. The actual presentation of the task or problem may occur at the beginning or at the end of your before actions.

Sorry it’s not the most exciting book but it was the closest, it could have been worse the next closest book was Webster’s dictionary and thesaurus.

I really do appreciate being tagged by Rick but I think everyone else has done this one so if you haven’t considered yourself tagged by me because this is a fun one.

Here are the rules if you decide to play.

Rules: Pass it on to five other bloggers, and tell them to open the nearest book to page 56. Write out the fifth sentence on that page, and also the next two to five sentences. The CLOSEST BOOK, NOT YOUR FAVORITE, OR MOST INTELLECTUAL
