I really enjoyed the SNAP math fair, and all the work that the students put into it really seemed to have paid off! They were clearly very excited to have visitors at their stations to explain their problems and the reason behind choosing the problem.
One problem I particularly liked was this one about collecting all of the totem poles in the most correct way without doubling over your steps. Not only was the problem tricky but still solvable, the students who presented their problem had excellent presentation skills and were very engaged the entire duration of our visit to the station! I was particularly impressed by this station but still had a very good experience at every other station.
After viewing the SNAP math fair, and seeing exactly how it works, I truly feel like this could be implemented in my practicum high school.
