How to use: Show students the first slide of the problem set. Ask them the guiding questions to get them thinking about what the question is asking. Numbers will slowly be added. Talk about the new information on each slide. Progress through the slides until you get to the last slide to solve. You can use the attached student materials to help support struggling learners. At the end of a unit or lesson use the “quick check” as an exit ticket. You can project it on the board or print out for each student.
