Today in room 207 we focused on error analysis.
As reading through another bloggers blog (Math = Love ...check her out, I love her stuff) I stumbled across her "Types of Errors" poster. In my Pre-Algebra class I have 16 students with IEPs. We have been learning how to add and subtract integers for quite some time now. Instead of just recording their assessments and having them redo problems, I thought "what if I have them find their errors?"
I spent all of my Sunday (when my DIY projects were drying) coming up with the Error Analysis lesson.
I was truly amazed at how they accepted and participated in the lesson. They really worked hard to figure out their errors and used their rules from class to help correct the problems they got wrong.
