Here's the two journal prompts for my VARC session. Thanks again for participating...have a great summer!
1. Unfortunately (from my point of view), VARC is frequently used by teachers as something to do after the SOL test. Do you think that VARC-like activities can help students succeed on the SOL tests or are they more suited to serve as the fun after the fact (be honest)? If so, how can teachers find the time to explore the context of algebra? If not, what changes can be made to allow for the use of VARC all year?
2. Think of something that you like to do in your Algebra I class but haven't yet done. Why haven't you done it and what can you do to help make it possible. Reply to topic (1) From: Kurt Stemhagenkrs2r@virginia.edu
