Description
It's no secret that kids love to role-play. Why not have them become Math Lawyers and defend their answers? As math lawyers, they're given a chance to see their work from another perspective.
Students look at their work differently when they think of it as defending something important. It was fun for me to watch their transformation from students writing numbers on papers to, "I believe in this work, and let me tell you why!"
This poster/label set reminds students that solving a problem is more than just writing down an answer. It gives kids several checkpoints to consider, including, "Does your answer make sense?"
Becoming a math lawyer encourages math conversation. I frequently pair up students to "defend" their answers. It's a great way to have them recheck their work before turning it in.
Not only does it help kids own their work, but it also improves study skills.
The labels make good reminders when attached to their math journals or notebooks.
