I just spent the two days before Thanksgiving break working with Mr. Gmerek's class on a concept called Mean Value Theorem. It's a fairly complex rule, and being able to understand it involves using just about every other concept the students have used that year. I enjoyed just walking through the various problems with the students, showing them the ways that everything ties together. It's good to still see the light turn on in people's minds. Overall, it was a successful week, though I know they'll have forgotten most of it over the break. Will be interesting to see how quickly they bounce back.
