Encourage tinkering with ideas, relationships, connections. Set up situations where students have to find information not readily available in school texts. Provide opportunity for students to design open-ended explorations of the concept. Provide multiple options so students can plan a unique "proof" of learning.
Students make borrowing & regrouping story problems.
Objective: To allow the students to add a practical element to reinforce the need for learning the concept and algorithm.
Activity: Have the children make up some story problems using subtraction with borrowing/regrouping.
