Here I share an example lesson using constructivist strategies to make classroom learning more engaging and meaningful. I walk through a Grade 5 market day math project where students use decimals and fractions to solve real-world budgeting problems. You’ll see examples of inquiry-based learning, cross-curricular connections, Universal Design for Learning, and team-based learning strategies that keep every student involved.
