Case: Real Life Situations
Mrs. Johnson is teaching addition to her 2nd grade class. All of her students do well in class. But when they go to the lunch line to buy food items none of them use addition . What can she do to get her students to translate her lessons to real world situations?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Mrs. Johnson should set up a make shift store in her room. She could bring items from home to "sell" in the store. Each student could be assigned an amount of money to purchase items with. Students should be required to use all of the money that has been assigned to them. Mrs. Johnson could run a cash register and assess student understanding as they bring items to buy with the money that has been assigned. Mrs. Johnson could give students some type of reward for correctly adding prices of items to total the amount of money they have been assigned to spend. At the end of the activity, Mrs. Johnson could discuss with the class how this is the same as it is in the real-world using the lunch room as an example. Then she could stand at the cash register in the lunch room and assess student mastery as they buy their lunches that day. |

| Comments: This is a great solution to the problem! Putting the "real world" in the classroom shows the students what they need to do in order to use the skills in the real world. |

| Comments: I really like this solution to the problem of students not using the addition the learned in class when in the lunch room. It provides a hands on experience for the students and would make them feel more comfortable using this new math in the real world. |

| Comments: This is an excellent way to build in real world concepts and do continual review of math concepts. This could be an ongoing way to assess students. |

| Comments: Agreed. It's an interesting way for the students to apply what they've just learnt in what seems to be real life. Mrs.Johnson can set up a store like that and help the student get used to addition gradually. |
