Objective: Share and critique peer strategies.
Students are given tape diagrams and are then challenged to create word problems to match the information displayed within the tape diagrams in Lesson 5. The given information requires students to use the customary or metric units practiced during this topic. After first solving the problems that they create, students share and critique the problem solving strategies used by their peers. In the Debrief, through the use of guided questions, students discuss not only how the problems were solved but also the advantages and disadvantages of using each strategy. They further discuss what makes one strategy more efficient than another.
