✔️ Allows students to support each others' ideas.

🪙 You could do this structure during math class in groups of 3.

🪙 After working through a math problem individually, you could present your solution and then vote for who you think is right.

Sample question❓

🍕 To demonstrate the structure, I could ask students to add 1/3 and 2/5.

🍕 Students would then solve the problem on their own and then share their solution with their group spending their quarters on who they think is correct.
