AVID Tutorials in the Geometry Class

Help me give my students the opportunity to participate in AVID style tutorials in my Geometry classroom. Tutorials foster communication and learning amongst the students. The whiteboards will allow me to divide the students into small groups.

My Project

Students need an opportunity to wrestle with difficult concepts together. AVID tutorials allow students to present ideas and work through areas of confusion by developing critical thinking and communication skills. I would like to implement these tutorials in my classroom, but I currently do not have enough whiteboard space to break the students into small enough groups. The whiteboards especially will allow me to break students in groups of 5-6 which will help foster communication and trust. The chair will allow me to monitor groups from above as they are working, allowing me to view all of groups at one time so I can easily assess which groups may need further assistance. I have used AVID tutorials in past schools and have find them to be a very useful tool for furthering understanding and true learning.
