Fix It - A Cooperative Learning Strategy

Introducing.....Fix It.  A cooperative learning strategy  in which students are given a problem and three multiple choice answers. Two of the answers are correct and one incorrect. Students are to find the incorrect answer and then "Fix It" on their response sheet.

To introduce this strategy, I have created a sampler that is aligned to Common Core Standards 3.NBT.2 and 4.NBT.4.  The sampler contains 15 cards, but the full card packs will have 30 question and answer cards. 

I like how this strategy allows students to find the incorrect answer versus the correct.  A twist to the traditional multiple choice.  You can download the free sampler HERE in my TpT store.   I hope you find these useful!

I like the idea behind this. Makes kids think in a different way and then take what they do know and make the wrong right. Thanks for sharing.

I LOVE this idea! Especially since the students have to really know the skill/concept/strategy be able to reason through which one is wrong and why in order to fix it. I can see this being used with many different subjects. Thanks!
