Mathematical Autobiography Foldable

How is it possible to already live this far behind alongside blogging afterward the FOURTH 24-hour interval of school?!? Oh, yeah. It mightiness live due to the fact that I nevertheless accept lessons from lastly schoolhouse yr that demand to live blogged about. And, I accept yet to complete my #TMC14 reflections. I experience similar I've been constantly on the become since July. I gauge this is the life of a teacher.

This year, I decided I wanted to accept my students write a mathematical autobiography. Not wanting to reinvent the wheel, I did some serious google searching. It took a piece to find, but I finally happened upon some questions that I liked. This "Mathography" assignment asked students to write a 3 paragraph essay. I wanted to purpose the same questions but become far less intimidating of an assignment for the commencement calendar week of school.

Here's my foldable version. Yes, I am genuinely obsessed. I gauge that's why people kept referring to me every bit the "foldable queen" at #TMC14... Plus, isn't this cuter than having your students correct an essay? :)

Students who wrote things on the within of their autobiography that they didn't desire others to run into were given the pick of stapling their autobiography closed inward their notebook afterward I checked it.
