5th Grade Math Curriculum Instruction
Class experience
US Grade 5
Beginner - Intermediate Level
Qualifications: I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education and a Master's degree in Educational Curriculum Design and Instruction. I have spent four years as a brick and mortor Elementary Education teacher. Two of those years I was apart of several district led leadership positions on math instruction and assessments. Additionally, I have 4 years of experience in conducting individual math tutoring for grades 3rd-8th. My teaching philosophy centers around providing support and...
Students will gain comprehension and mastery of all 5th grade math standards.
Homework Offered
Because of how our lessons are structured, I encourage students to spend some time practicing our skills each week in order to reinforce what was learned in class. Homework should take no more than 20 minutes to complete. If homework takes longer than 20 minutes is a sign that there are still some learning gaps and that your child may need support. Homework can be uploaded and will be checked for correctness and feedback will be provided as seen fit.0 - 1 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
I believe that assessments are a tool to help determine a student's grasp of knowledge or understanding of the topic. I recognize that assessments are not the only way to evaluate a students understanding. However I like to use assessments as a way to track growth of understanding. Because of this students will have 3 assessments over the period of a unit. All assessments should be completed outside of class -Pre-assessments will help me determine what knowledge students have carried with them from 4th grade. This allows me to see if there are any prerequisite skills I may need to cover before we begin our lesson. -Mid unit Check-ins will be used to see how students are grasping the current concepts. Again it lets me know if I need to go back and help strengthen skills before moving on, if a student really grasps the skills and needs a challenge, or if they are moving at a steady rate. -End Unit Assessments show over all how well the student grasped the skills taught. From this I can determine if a review is needed for a whole class level, individual levels. I like to use all 3 data points to show growth. I found if students are also aware of the data provided by assessments they take pride and ownership of their growth.Grades Offered
Grades will be offered, however grades are used to show me where students may need help, or where they may need a challenge.
Student vocabulary and student work booklets will be provided at the start of every unit. While printing is optional, I do encourage the use of paper versions as students will be able to interact and write on the paper, helping connect ideas to practice. A digit version will also be provided if printing is not an option. I encourage students to have a white board, a notebook with graph paper (1 cm squares are perfect for showing work), and a good pencil and eraser in class.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
I use the Common Core math standards as a guide to my instruction. I will be using a curriculum developed by experienced educators: Greg Coleman and Kristin Rivera. I have purchased this curriculum and have permission to use it.
Does your child struggle with expressing themselves or communicating with adults and other children? I earned my masters degree developing fun and engaging curriculum that teaches children foundational communication skills. In all of my classes,...
