Daily Math Challenges

During the first ten minutes of class we complete "Math Challenges".
These problems are review exercises, as well as "teacher challenges", which ask the students to act as a teacher to create "mini-lessons" on various math topics.
One teacher challenge asked the students to create a math lesson on rounding using an image of a mountain. Students find different ways to teach the challenges, which allows all of us to learn the topics through different methods.
Here are a few quick photographs of the students, hard at work.
