Welcome to my full-curriculum 6th Grade class! We will work hard all year to build math skills, confidence and growth mindsets. 

↔️ FLIPPED CLASS ↔️ 

This class follows a “flipped model.”  Students watch my video lessons the day before our class to get an introduction to the new topic, try it out, and gather questions.  They can pause, rewind, and rewatch as needed. The following day in class we will practice the concept with more example problems, independent practice, discussion, activities and games; all with me there to support them as they work. It’s like they have me with them 4 days a week even though we only meet 2 days! 
            
        Example Weekly Schedule:
                🔹Mon: Watch Video Lesson
                🔹Tues: Class Meets for Practice & Discussion
                🔹Wed: Watch Video Lesson
                🔹Thur: Class Meets for Practice & Discussion
                🔹 Fri: Optional Practice Materials or Assessment Provided


📌 REQUIRED SKILLS 📌 

Students should have successfully completed 5th grade math and have a strong command of multiplication/division facts, long division and decimal operations.  If they need review of these, I offer a 6 week class to review those topics.  Message me for details.


📢 COURSE FLEXIBILITY 📢 

You can choose to pay for this class weekly for added flexibility.  This will allow you to give the class a try and make sure it is a good fit for your learner without committing to the entire year with a full payment. Learners can join the class at any time.  If you are concerned about joining the class after the August start date please reach out to me and we can discuss how to make sure your learner is up to speed when joining the class.
