~ Overview ~

The Investigations in Teaching Geometry module was developed from a three-day lesson sequence taught in a fifth-grade class. The general theme of the lessons dealt with informal explorations with volume. In the challenges which follow, you will be investigating various ways in which the fifth graders interpreted and solved the problems posed as well as the role of the teacher in initiating and guiding the mathematical development of the students.
