Patti: What strategies do you use to help teachers find their curriculum objectives in projects where they might not think they are?

Adriana [Brazil]: Interdisciplinary. This is the key. It happened with me this week. I decided to participate in Math Puzzles, but our school is studying (together) the new rules of transit... So, we joined both... Sometimes, it's easy... others not... But, if the teachers trust you and you have some creativity, you link things. It makes things easier for children. They understand things better.

The speed limit minus the number of fingers you have in one hand plus the number of wheels of a bicycle. What is my number?
