Looking for a fun 3rd grade math class that your learner will be excited to join each week? Well, look no further! Each class will cover a different 3rd grade math topic. After learning the topics and reinforcing them through practice problems, learners will participate in a game of Blooket, where they will practice the skills that they just learned, while having fun and engaging in some friendly competition with their fellow classmates! (For those who are unfamiliar with Blooket, please see the description below)
Class Format:
5 minutes: Warm up
- as learners join, they will be asked to complete a "minds on" warm-up problem that will start getting them thinking about the the topic of the day
20 minutes: Active learning
- The teacher will introduce the topic of the day and present various examples that will be completed both as a group as well as independently for reinforcement
10 minutes: Blooket game!
- Learners will reinforce their understanding of the topic of day while having fun!
- Blooket is "an exciting new take on the modern classroom review game. It aims to match action with education to create the ultimate learning experience!"
- Blooket has several game modes, which we will alternate through. Some examples include:
-> Gold Quest: In this mode, learner will answer questions in a quiz-style format (similar to Kahoot), and when they get a question right, they get to open a gold chest. They will get to choose one of three chests to open - some containing lots of gold, some allowing them to steal gold from other players, and some containing nothing. The player with the most gold at the end of the game wins!
-> Fishing Frenzy: Cast, reel, and prepare for Lots of Surprises! Cast out your line and answer questions quickly to reel in the biggest fish in the whole wide sea. Watch out for catching some crazy things! The player that catches highest total fish weight wins!

Mr. Christian Calvelo (Certified Teacher):
Christian discovered his love for teaching when he was 17 years old as a private piano instructor. From there, he pursued a Business Management diploma from SAIT while tutoring Economics and went on to manage his own small business for 5 years. After gaining a breadth of knowledge in that field, Christian decided to get back into teaching and completed a three streamed degree (Kinesiology, Political Science, Sociology) as well as an Education degree from the University of Lethbridge.
He has over a decade of teaching experience and has taught Math to students of all ages. Christian has a passion for teaching Mathematics as he loves bringing a real-world connection to his students. He believes that finding ways to make learning fun is important for students to find passion and reach their full potential.
Outside of the online classroom, Christian teaches Elementary students, continues to teach Piano and Guitar, is a certified basketball referee, and loves to collect pinball machines.
Ms. Melissa Barrow (Certified Teacher):
My name is Melissa Barrow. I am a former early childhood educator and I'm currently a certified elementary teacher in Ontario, Canada. I am a former classroom teacher who has moved to 1-on-1 and small group online classes to help further support students who need it. I enjoy finding new strategies and games to engage students in their learning. I like to support students in learning how to use the resources around them to help support their learning and further their independence.
Ms. Joyce Mendoza (Certified Teacher):
Hello, my name is Joyce. I received my Bachelor of Education from the University of Calgary specializing in Elementary Mathematics with a minor in Anthropology as I also enjoy learning about different cultures and societies. In addition, I have experience in Early Childhood Education and have worked with children with a wide range of different learning abilities. With over 15 years in the field of Education I believe that students maximize and enjoy learning when they realize they can apply what was learned in the classroom to their everyday lives outside the classroom to make their educational journey that much more meaningful.
It is my goal to make learning math an interactive and enjoyable experience while providing support to each and every student.
Outside of the math classroom, I also teach piano and love spending time outdoors with my family, especially with my kids. We enjoy going on long drives away from the city and frequently visit the mountains and go hiking, kayaking and sightseeing.
Ms. Kristen Calvelo:
Hello, my name is Kristen. Starting out as an educational assistant, I gained a love for working with children and helping them develop confidence and find excitement in fully embracing their academic potential. Following my time as an educational assistant, I pursued one of my many other passions, interior design. After receiving my Bachelor of Interior Design degree and working in the industry for several years, I’m ready to get back into instilling confidence in young learners’ abilities!
Making learning relevant, meaningful, and enjoyable for my students is of utmost importance, as motivated and excited students make the best learners.
Outside of teaching, I enjoy baking, getting outside when I can, and spending quality time with my husband and our many pets. I hope to see you in my class!Reviews
