Frame and Focus: Lily Pad Escape

Here are some Frame, Focus and Follow-up suggestions for using this video in a math lesson.

What is Frame, Focus and Follow-up?

Frame: When we double a number, what are we multiplying it by?  If you start with the number one and double it five times, what new number is created? If you write all these numbers down, what kind of pattern do you see? A doubling pattern can create large numbers fairly quickly.

Focus: As you watch this segment, look at the numbers Inez generates on the Skwak pad. Record these numbers and look for the pattern that occurs. Think about how doubling is being used to help the squad cross the water.
