EUREKA HEIGHTS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL: Peer-to-peer instruction sharpens math skills



Ms. Schoen and Ms. Farkas's first-graders at Eureka Heights Elementary School met with their fifth-grade buddies from Mr. Beddingfield's class recently to utilize peer-to-peer instruction and play math games.

Students used technology such as iPads and computers to work on number lines and math families.  

Other students used a math mat and 13 cubits to practice the math game “Rotten Apple.”  The contrast of these two very different learning methods ensure that all students learning styles are satisfied.
