Students definitely needed the review! They did get the hang of it fairly quickly but their investment math was definitely rusty. In particular, students needed help figuring out the difference between a compound interest problem and an annuity. There was some difficulty figuring out what numbers go where but they helped each other with this. By the time they got to the work, it went quickly and they definitely worked together. I am finding that if the work doesn't look too daunting, and it is somewhat challenging but not too overwhelming, the students will do the work well in class. They are all using class time well. Perhaps this is the honeymoon period but I am feeling pretty good so far!
