Submission Required
Small groups use their charts to discuss which method was most efficient, which was easiest to explain, and how their thinking changed after trying several strategies. Each group drafts two evidence-based claims, one limitation, and one new question on chart paper using sentence frames and vocabulary cards for place value, regrouping, partial products, and efficiency. Students must point to worked examples, not just opinions, when defending a claim.
