    This is the worksheet I'm planning to use to introduce my students to the portfolio I think I'm going to have them do over the year. The idea is largely stolen. But I have a week to think on it and probably make some tweaks before I bring it to the students.

    The Portfolio Becoming a Mathematician

    M. Riling

    As you build your portfolio, you will show that you have grown as a mathematician and a problem-solver this year by demonstrating certain habits of thinking.

    THE HABITS
    -looking for patterns -solving a similar problem -being systematic -staying organized -visualizing -experimenting through conjectures -being confident, patient, and persistent -collaborating and listening -seeking why and proving it

    SUPPLIES
    -a 3-ring binder (at least 1 inch) -12 dividers (feel free to make your own)

    WHAT YOULL PUT IN YOUR BINDER


    -Every Friday -pick something you did that week that shows you were using one of the habits -fill out a hand-out explaining your choice -Every Marking Period -summarize your work so far -your portfolio will be reviewed by you, a classmate, me, and a family member

    GRADING
    -it counts for 5% of your grade -graded based on completion, thoughtfulness, and evidence of growth at the end of each marking period
