requests in a positive fashion, be proactive rather than reactive, avoid power struggles,
how to use powerful prompting techniques and learn about classroom arrangements for

Exciting, Energizing, and Effective Superpowers– Use Contest
Problems When Teaching Area

Try something different when you teach area – try contest problems! This session challenges you with a
dozen carefully selected gems. Your students will welcome the novelty of this approach as they gain
insight into geometric concepts. They will team-up to bring various talents together to succeed. Multiple
solution paths remove these questions from the realm of drill and give them value. The teaching of
problem solving will be modeled in this session permitting participants to take ownership of the problems
and solutions. You will leave with these and over 50 additional rich problems.
