Lesson 5: Video Math Stories For REAL LIFE Math

Length: 5 Days


Objectives: Students will be able to create video math stories based on understanding of multiplying decimals and real world math (but you can apply this to any math standard).Students will be able to solve the problems presented in the video math stories of their peers.Students will evaluate the mathematical thinking of others.


Grade:K-12


Standards:


ISTE Standard 6b: Students create original works or responsibly repurpose or remix digital resources into new creations.

ISTE Standard 6c: Students communicate complex ideas clearly and effectively by creating or using a variety of digital objects such as visualizations, models or simulations.

ISTE Standard 6d: Students publish or present content that customizes the message and medium for their intended audiences.


Preparation Review the math concept.

Discuss the applicability factor: When in real life will we use….?

Allow students to choose partners.In pairs, generate story problem- include math language, equation, etc.

Create a plan including: Video Title, Characters, Props Needed- consider including a script or storyboard template.

Show many examples- allow students to look at these examples for inspiration (see the video examples above and additional ones under the “Materials” section).




Creation Film/Record Video.Edit and publish with WeVideo.


Solving + Reflection Share videos to a platform for fellow students to view.

Have students listen to and solve the video math stories of their peers.

Have students evaluate the mathematical thinking of their peers.


Questions: Was the mathematical thinking correct?

Why or why not?

Did they use a similar strategy that you had in mind?

If you were the teacher, what would you say?




Materials:
