               1:00 - 2:00           Session 73                           General                                 Exhibit Hall 2

                                        Escape Room Experience

               The Escape Room Experience challenges attendees with a series of puzzles and riddles that
               must be solved in order to escape. The goal? Escaping the room before time runs out. The
               escape room experience helps students build essential collaboration and critical thinking skills.
               Attendees can expect to work as a group to solve puzzles on Promethean’s immersive
               classroom solutions, including the ActivPanel, ActivConnect and ClassFlow. The Promethean
               Escape room is limited to 10 attendees per session. Please register here in advance.

                                 Using Desmos to Explore Ellipses


               In this lesson we will be exploring the similarities between circles and ellipses (both in their
               equations and their appearances). Students will utilize Demos graphing technology to aid them
               in their discoveries.

                         Making the Most of Small Group Instruction


               Use small group instruction to make math enjoyable to all students.  Build your small group
               environment and fill your teacher toolbox with hands-on activities, math games, projects, and
               group discussion.  Never teach math the same way again.
