By following the guidelines set forth by the ODE, I use higher level thinking skills while teaching students to respond to the 2 & 4 point problems of the OAA. Lower Order Thinking Skills (LOTS) are used in class to develope vocabulary, symbolic notation, and axiomatic properties in the math classroom. HOTS are used for all other problems.
One project that involves HOTS that I'm excited about introducing is Algebraic Proof beyond the first quarter of our class. Having students prove the means/extremes property of proportions utilizes HOTS and reinforces their understanding of proportions, fractions, and simplifying rational expressions.
