Unfortunately, the geometry curriculum in my district has been watered down so much that the teaching of proofs has almost become non-existent. Your approach seems interesting and challenging. It's something I would like to try next year too!MathMomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10220498.post-17147809022744825522010-06-08T22:29:26.049-05:002010-06-08T22:29:26.049-05:00Thanks for the proofblocks.com link.

Also, hopefully I can sustain my momentum and not be so last minute come fall in designing this unit.<br /><br />Ms. CookieShireen Dadmehrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16282965851939089408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10220498.post-62823111154320494562010-06-08T14:10:26.567-05:002010-06-08T14:10:26.567-05:00I like your idea too--I'm looking forward to s...I like your idea too--I'm looking forward to seeing more of it!<br /><br />It reminds me a bit of an article in Teaching Mathematics in April on ProofBlocks: http://www.proofblocks.com/<br />You might want to take a look at their resources to see if they could help out your project.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07240171828076229520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10220498.post-49125464431360781552010-06-08T09:43:39.114-05:002010-06-08T09:43:39.114-05:00Great idea!

Maybe this as an introduction would be much smoother.Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08395474750276931370noreply@blogger.com
