Sometimes I use group work in my classes, encourage them to help each other, explain things. I have a group. We call it middle math. They're learning about a law of sines now. One of my less motivated student tried to ask some direction from another girl . What I have noticed. She was getting troubled. I stepped in and explained how could she handle the situation.
In my advanced math group I have a really clever boy. He always helps his classmates. I think his illustrative skills are pretty good by now.
I encourage my students to explain each other math. Maybe that's why the other student can better get it.
In this year I ask them to express oneself more precisely. We correct it, discuss it.

I love dance too. The main problem is in high school is we don't have time. But it's a really good idea.

I really love music but never tried to write a math song. When I was a student we learnt some songs but I forgot it.

I'm an IT teacher too. I link math with IT. I tell them they'll have more and better job opportunities with math and IT.
With two of my students we're preparing for a competition. They use Imagine Logo. By this time they know how important is math. They draw trees recursively.  They have good math basis so it's easier them to adopt the problems.
Others have plans with physics. They also know how important math is.
In my school in this year we had a week for further education. The organizer invited some of the university's representatives. The students heard about engineering, programming. All kind of stuff where math is needed.
I never invited other professions to my class. There was a year when one of our graduated students came back and spoke about their major.

Volume and surface area
- How much kg stone do we need for the upper-left corners solid figure?
- How much paint do we need for that jungle gym?
- How much glass do we need for change that lamp's glass?
- How much concrete do we need for that thing? What is the figure's name? There is a quadrangle, you turn around its symmetry axle and you have this figure. What's its name?
- Could you find other solid figures in your surroundings or in the world? How can you group them?

- 580 students
- Most of the classrooms have a projector.
- We have three IT rooms.

- Cardinality of the Union of three Sets:

Students like to use facebook. Make a group. Write some topic. After that make some math problems with it. Like the three sets will be who used likes, who used comments, who used posts. There will be intersections too. They count the results and operate with it.

- Arithmetic Sequences and Sums:

Go to a big theater where every row has more and more seats. Every time the same amount like before. Operate with the infos.

- One of my favourite problems:

There is a 50 m wide sports field. It has 2 m high fence. Nearby there is a panel house. It has 10 floors. Each floor is 3 m high. The sports filed and a panel house distance is 500 m. Which floors door should you knock in if you would like to see your favourite team without a ticket?

- Plan a class trip
I have an IT group with 14 students. Their project is to plan a class trip. The first step was to figure out the destination. In groupwork they have looked for reasons why sould they go there. After that they'll decide where the trip will be going. The math part will be planing the costs.
- Process some algebric problem with geogebra. Students make excipients for other students to better understanding these problems.

I think lately in our high school the main problem is their missing foundations.  And math is dry, complex, too much to learn and I can stop. If they want to graduate, I have to finish the curriculum. No time to stop.  The other problem is lately the students aren't persistent. They give up easily. And of course lots of them have problem with reading comprehension.

My students' motivation and engagement level is really different. I have a group with advanced math. Math is easy with them even when the topic is difficult. But there is my class for example. They really don't like to think and do they homework.
What is their excuse? Sometimes they have to learn other subject too or nothing. There's no excuse.

Sometimes my students voice their dislike. Then I stop and explain why we learn math.

Until now I did not use often group work. Lately I really like to give different problems to different students. I don't like it if somebody is bored. This is more work for me but good to see their faces. How they progress.
I think the other important component is the humour. It is always easier to teach with good spirit.
It never works if you show them you're unyielding.
I like questions. Lot of them. This way I know how far we are.
In this year I try to use some interactive lessons. I'm looking for new ideas

My name is Anett. I live in Hungary. I've been teaching math and IT since 2007. My school is  a High school with nearly 600 students. We have kids from 7th grade to senior. I have a class too. (10.C) This class has three sections: German, math - physics and IT. This is the second year since I've been teaching them.
My youngest students are in the 9th grade and the oldest ones are seniors. The latter are learning advanced math. (like integrate and derivative) I really enjoy it.

Because I'm an IT teacher too, I'm interested in technology. I'm that kind of person who always wanna be better in her job.
