US Grade 6
In this course students will learn various geometric concepts and use Algebra to determine missing sides and/or angles. The students will also determine the volume of different geometric figures as well. Students will explore lines, angles, triangles, rectangles, and other two dimensional figures. The three dimensional figures that will be covered are rectangular prisims and cylinders. I will use a variety of teaching methods such as direct instructions, exploratory methods, and game based instruction. Students will be engaged through videos as well as the aforementioned methods of instructions. The students will be expected to participate by completing activities and most importantly asking questions. Questions are encouraged. My style of teaching is adapted to my student population.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello. I am an experienced teacher with 25 years in the public school. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education. I hold a lifetime certification in Texas for elementary grades 1-8 all core subjects, Lifetime Elementary Mathematics 1-8, Generalists 4-8, Special Education Certification, as well as an English as A Second Language certification. I also have a Master's of Education in Curriculum and Instruction.
I enjoy teaching a variety of different classes. My favorite course is mathematics. I taught mathematics for 21 years - grades 4th - 8th. I love playing different math games and helping students to design their own games.
It is my belief that all students can learn. As educators we must recognize the differences in our students and accommodate to our students needs. This is why I utilize a variety of teaching strategies in my class.I also adjust to students based on their suggestions and parent suggestions.
I enjoy reading, writing (especially poetry), playing word games, and math game. Having fun with my family is something I love to do. We often have water balloon fights and enjoy a game of laser tag.
I hope to build many fantastic experiences with you in my classroom. I hope to see you there!
