Ruttenberg-Rozen, Robyn – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2020

In this classroom episode, I share a paradoxical task, based on Simpson's Paradox, and its power as an intervention for a child diagnosed with ADHD. The Paradox leveraged his strengths to help him build understandings in proportional reasoning.
