Challenge 5

Initial Thoughts-

The topic my group selected to look into was Classroom Norms. At first, I wasn't exactly sure what the topic was referring to. In the video, the teacher asked the students if their classmate was correct in his approach to a math problem. She asked them if they understood his approach and what he was talking about. Then another student confirms that she believes he solved the problem correctly. From the video, I think that the classroom norms refer to the students being actively involved in the learning process and making sure they understand different methods to getting answers in mathematics. I think that the classroom norms in the video show that the students are expected to explain how they reach answers in math, and are expected to question each others work.
