TEACHING STRATEGIES  The math content will be taught.  There will be several activities, investigations and project during which students will have chance to apply the knowledge on real-life situations.  Class discussions during and after each assignment.  Individual approach to students‟ work.  Challenging tasks to advanced students. TEACHING METHOD      The students will be organized into 2-3 member groups. The tasks will be given to the groups and a class discussion will follow so everybody understands the given tasks.
