Clip 32/41: Standard 3: Construct Arguments & Critiques Using Rate of Change Part 2A

Overview

Mathematically proficient students are also able to compare the effectiveness of two plausible arguments, distinguish correct logic or reasoning from that which is flawed, and—if there is a flaw in an argument—explain what it is.

Antoinette Villarin’s students return to their groups to discuss and share their thinking about the relationship between graphs showing rate of change. She challenges them to try to find the two graphs out of four with the correct combination to describe the same container. As the student partners work, Antoinette circulates around the room engaging pairs in questioning.
