  2. Three Act Math: Philosophy "Storytelling gives us a framework for certain mathematical tasks that is both prescriptive enough to be useful and flexible enough to be usable. Many stories divide into three acts, each of which maps neatly onto these mathematical tasks." -Dan Meyer

  3. Why Three Act Math? "Many math teachers take act two as their job description. Hit the board, offer students three worked examples and twenty practice problems. However, it's clear to me that the second act isn't our job anymore. Not the biggest part of it, anyway. You are only one of many people your students can access as they look for resources and tools. Going forward, the value you bring to your math classroom increasingly will be tied up in the first and third acts of mathematical storytelling, your ability to motivate the second act and then pay off on that hard work." -Dan Meyer

  4. Mathematical Inquiry

  5. Act One Introduce the central conflict of your story/task clearly, visually, viscerally, using as few words as possible.

  6. Act I

  7. Act I: Follow Up

  8. Act I: Formulating Questions

  9. Act I: Group Questions

  10. Act I: Driving Question

  11. Driving Question

  12. Act I: Estimation Directions

  13. Act I: Estimation

  14. Act Two The protagonist/student overcomes obstacles, looks for resources, and develops new tools.

  15. Act II

  16. Act II: What information is needed?

  17. Act II: Information & Resources

  18. Act II: Performing Research

  19. Act II: Information Gathered

  20. Act Three Resolve the conflict and set up a sequel/extension. The payoff in the third act needs to meet their expectations

  21. Act III

  22. Act III: Documentation of Work

  23. Act III: Proof of Answer

  24. Sequel Extension problem: New questions asked by students that stems from what they learned.

  25. Sequel Questions
