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: Spending money is easy. Keeping track of it takes a little more work. If you were given $50 and you had a list of things to buy for a birthday party, how would you keep track of what you spent to ensure that you didn’t go over your $50 budget?

Focus: In this video segment, you’ll see that in order for Steve to manage his diabetes, he needs to eat about 140 grams of carbohydrates every day. How does he keep track of his carbohydrate intake? What kinds of math operations does he use?
