Variation for Older Students
{"Image DocumentName": "Variation for Older Students", "Image ImageDescription": "Ask students to help you locate an object that is about 12 orange rods long, measuring each object as it is suggested. Once found, ask partners to decide how long that object would be in yellow rods. Typically, students offer the following explanations: Two yellow rods fit on one orange, so we did 2 times 12 and got 24. We multiplied 12 times 2, 12 orange rods times 2; and we got 24. There are 12 orange, and 2 yellow make an orange, so we counted by two s. The answer is 24. After they have shared their thinking, assign partners the task of figuring out the length of the object in white rods, in red rods, and then in dark green rods, without measuring it. Ask students who finish before the others to find the length in blue rods, black rods, etc.", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
