Math Congress is an instructional strategy where students work in pairs to create posters showing their solutions to a math problem. The teacher then selects a few posters to showcase and facilitate a whole-class discussion, focusing on reasoning and generalizing mathematical ideas. The goal is for students to communicate their thinking, learn from their peers, and develop a deeper understanding of key concepts through reflection and discourse within a learning community.
