Superhero Problem Solvers
In this PBL (Project Based Learning), the students became mathematical superheroes to overcome the evil villain, Inefficient Strategy! Incorporating math instruction, formative and summative assessments, problem solving and a whole lot of fun, the students worked to become proficient in their problem solving skills! The final presentation was the students teaching their parents, administration, University professors and community members how to solve story problems using their mathematical strategy. Over the course of 2 weeks, our students made huge success and are now using efficient strategies to solve story problems!

Learning Case Study
The attached file is a learning case study I created in one of my University courses. There were multiple children taken in to account when forming this hypothetical PBL (Project Based Learning). The PBL was created and adapted for the needs and strengths of each student.
