I discovered this man while participating in the Teaching Blog Addict Blog Hop. Dan Meyer was featured in a guest piece on Teaching With Style, written by Melissa from Dilly Dabbles.
I started by reading Ten Design Principles for Engaging Math Tasks. Then I browsed Mr. Meyer's spreadsheet searching for third grade tasks. I found the following Three Act Tasks that you can download for free: Bucky the Badger and Pyramid of Pennies
Alright fine, most of his tasks are geared towards 6th grade and above, but the principles are sound and I spent quite a while exploring his website and everything it is linked to. Happy Reading!
