 Have you wondered how to take an activity and make it applicable to any math topic, any grade level? Come check this session out and turn the impossible into reality!

In this session, you'll participate in a multi-stage activity that facilitates collaboration, problem solving, perseverance, and mathematical reasoning . . .
