Course Summary
The Pizza Problem is an instructional delivery method to support math concepts from kindergarten through 12th grade and beyond.
This is one activity in a collection of 12 we call Reference Tasks.
A Reference Task is an instructional activity that can be repeated and built on throughout a child's school career to maximize conceptual learning through cognitive, research-based instructional techniques.
Inside the course, you will receive a 2-hour workshop and handouts you can use in your classroom.
One of the handouts lays out seven interactions to guide you through your school year, plus other materials.
We also include 3-hours of Jonily teaching in the classroom.
