The Process

The Problem Solving Process was developed based on the perception-action cycle, which is how our brain learns. The goal is to get students involved in the process of learning which requires noticing what is going on and then starting a cycle of predicting, testing, and analyzing.

Tools

There are several tools that teachers can use with students in the Problem Solving Process, including bookmarks and sentence stems for discussions. These tools are available in English and Spanish.

Table Games

Camp Adventure includes Table Games, which focus on supporting the development and practice of specific math topics. In playing these games, students explore math concepts, engage in strategic thinking, apply their knowledge, challenge each other, and have fun with mathematics.

Table Game Resources

Grade-specific Table Game resources can be found here in the Printing Documents section of the website. Each Table Game Resource booklet contains all of the instructions, game mats, and game cards needed for a successful ST Math Camp Adventure experience.

Spanish

The Camp Adventure Guide is designed to support students and teachers with monitoring, student accountability, and writing in math. When students are mindful of their data, they are able to see their progress, reflect on their learning, and work with their teacher to set and track their goals.

The Camp Adventure Goal Tracker is a useful resource to help students set goals and track their progress toward their goals throughout a given module. Each section of the Goal Tracker focuses on one of the three stations of Camp Adventure.

Student Learning

In order to measure student learning, each module has an optional two-question exit ticket available. If you decide to utilize this exit ticket, it is recommended that it be administered during the final session of the module.

Click on the appropriate grade level to see all five module exit tickets.

Design a Game

The Mini-Math Game Design is an optional activity that teachers can implement during the last week of Camp Adventure. Students design and create their own math games in small groups using the Design Process. Use the Mini-Math Game Design Guide to support discussions. Students will record their brainstorming ideas and evaluations of the games in the Mini-Math Game Design Booklet.

Optional resource

Teacher Tip:

Encourage students to iterate on one of the games they played during Camp Adventure or a game they like to play at home.
