4. Summary Discussion (about 10 minutes)

Closing each session with a summary discussion can help students deepen their learning. Summary discussions can be general or specific.

General Summary Questions:
  • What did you learn?
  • What did you figure out?
  • What did you discover while you were here today?
  • What was easy/hard?
  • What would you like to celebrate today?
Specific Summary Questions:
  • How have your ideas changed about how to solve problems like 8+5 or 11-6?
  • What happened during the centers today that you would like to celebrate?
During the summary discussion, teachers simply moderate the discussion; all reasonable responses to opening questions are acceptable.
