5 th Grade Math - Series 1 - Strong Math Foundation

This Ongoing Section for 5th graders is to understand and reinforce 5th grade Math concepts to ensure students get a strong foundation as they get ready for middle school. 

This class is structured for learners with knowledge of 4th grade Math.
I strongly encourage growth mindset in my teaching-learning strategies. Students who persevere become geniuses. I continuously reinforce this aspect in my teaching.

Dear Parents and Caregivers - Please be assured that in the course of working with me -  it is not just the confidence in these Math topics your child will develop independent learning skills, the importance of perseverance and eagerness to learn. 

Here are the list of topics students will learn and review. I will be using the whiteboard and PowerPoint to instruct the class. 

This will be an interactive class and the learners are highly encouraged to participate. An optional assignment posted at the end of every class. Though its optional, Students are highly encouraged to try these assignments, share their work and ask questions.

Important Notes:
1. Each class is independent, learners can drop in and out, there is no obligation to do the entire series.
2. I highly recommend learners to do all the classes since these are core 5th grade units that build in foundation to middle school.

Also I welcome parents and learners to ask to be taught topics of their choice.
