Today Trevor came to observe me take a DMIC lesson. I was anxious about it so he guided me through the process. I used a STAGE 7 GLOSS fractions question (which he liked!)
I was so stunned that the children managed to solve it and shared their thinking excellently through diagrams. Interestingly most of them cannot solve this problem on their own in the GLOSS diagnostic interview with me! But the collaboration led to deeper understanding. They even established a new rule/pattern which I hadn't expected. This was very rich learning so I'm looking forward to implementing more DMIC lessons.
