Assessments Offered
To receive a letter grade or a letter of completion, learners are required to complete all assignments, participate in class, and take a cumulative course review test.Grades Offered
In this class, you can receive a letter of completion, a letter grade, or a pass/no pass option, along with a certificate of completion.
Students entering sixth-grade math should be comfortable with arithmetic operations, fractions, decimals, and basic geometry concepts. Some exposure to algebraic thinking, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills is also beneficial.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
In addition to utilizing Khan Academy, a complimentary online learning platform, this course will incorporate Google classroom for viewing my self-produced lesson videos, which will be similar to my live lessons in classes. YouTube may also be utilized for this purpose, though communication between learners and myself is not possible on either platform due to communication restrictions. All interaction will be conducted exclusively through Outschool and live meetings.
