Inquiry

A few weeks ago, we talked about the Inquiry Model for teachers to implement into the classroom teaching structure. I found the lesson to be quite fun, and informational. I enjoyed this type because I could relate to what we were doing, and I can see many ways I would do this in my own teaching.
    Being a "Math" guy, I would give my students a problem that they want to explore. By giving them a topic and would let them explore that said topic in mathematics, and I think that the could enrich their learning experiences, and they would have a deeper and more appreciative view on what they are doing. That is something that they could hold, and own. It would be their finding, something that has a little bit of ownership to it.
