I have 32 kids per class. Luckily my room is one of the bigger ones in the science department so I can manage the space. I am still struggling with how to display the boards because my room is very long but not very wide so we make more of a long rectangle than a circle. It is sort of hard to see everyone's board so I have gone to more of a Pata-esque presentation method.bryan battagliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01195145851269463257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-951429983444008920.post-68871959209646178892010-09-23T10:05:05.278-04:002010-09-23T10:05:05.278-04:0010 groups!

Managing the physical space for labs and the white boards is a real challenge.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03845218741079628797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-951429983444008920.post-86181675798471335912010-09-18T07:26:23.691-04:002010-09-18T07:26:23.691-04:00I plan on giving out puzzles every few weeks throu...I plan on giving out puzzles every few weeks through the semester. I am interested if I can track improvement in reasoning ability as the units progress.bryan battagliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01195145851269463257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-951429983444008920.post-28882529056069292822010-09-18T00:13:16.547-04:002010-09-18T00:13:16.547-04:00You can never have too many boards!

I'd rather give the FCI and the Lawson test. <br /><br />Also, great idea about doing the puzzles. Now I'm going to have a bunch on hand for when class finishes early! Let us know how your island puzzle goes. I wonder if their will be any correlation between the puzzle responses and FCI gains?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
