Enthusiasm


We had our first work session today: I explained the project to the kids and then they worked for the presentations. They will work in groups, so the presentations are also group ones, but they also wrote about each one of them. I try to make them in work groups as much as possible because this class (it's the one I also tutor) was only formed a year ago, so they still need to be brought together.
Although I had told them they would only write a draft today, they were so enthusiastic they added little drawings and hearts, just as if their partners would really get their papers. This is good thing: they feel they will work in a team.It was touching, so I decided to scan them and upload them. Here are two of them!

Hello!

This blog is created to help us share impressions and experience about our work in the project, but also interesting things about our way of teaching Maths and our towns.
I hope we will enjoy working together and posting on it!
Welcome!
