US Grade 6
Welcome to sixth grade math! I can't wait for you to join the Moxie Learning family! This series of 4 classes can be used as your child's sole math course for their year or as a supplement to another math class or curriculum. Students should have successfully completed a fifth grade math class. THIS COURSE SERIES WILL COVER ALL 6TH GRADE MATERIAL AND SOME 7TH GRADE MATERIAL. If your child tends to struggle with math content check out our fifth grade class which covers all of 5th and some 6th grade material. We will work through the Singapore Math Dimensions curriculum which is aligned with common core standards and demands deep understanding of concepts. In this class, we will play many games to practice the concepts we are learning. My teaching style is "I do, We do, You do" through this method, I am able to meet students where they are at and differentiate their learning. Our classes become small families throughout the quarter and year. It is important for students to come to class ready to participate in their learning with their cameras on and limited distractions around them. Week 1: Ch. 6 Rate Week 2: Ch. 7 Percent Week 3: Review and Test Rate & Percent Week 4: Ch. 8 Algebraic Expressions (writing equations and using letters) Week 5: Ch. 8 Algebraic Expressions (simplifying equations and word problems) Week 6: Ch. 9 Algebraic Expressions and Inequalities (balancing equations) Week 7: Ch. 9 Algebraic Expressions and Inequalities (inequalities and graphing) Week 8: Ch. 10 Coordinates and Graphs (coordinate planes and distance between coordinate pairs) Week 9: Ch. 10 Coordinates and Graphs (variables) Week 10: Review Week!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello,
My name is Amy Sneath and I am the creator of Moxie Learning. Our company of teachers aim to provide a world class education without the limits of physical location. We form true classroom communities that rival those of traditional school. Friendships and true connection alongside academic excellence are regular occurrences at Moxie Learning.
When I was in school, I fell victim to math phobia and believed I was "bad" at math. Now I pride myself on meeting students where they are at and building their confidence to see they can learn any concept. I have experience in traditional 3rd and 4th grade classrooms teaching math and have seen first hand the difference in student achievement when they build confidence in themselves. This creates a life long love of learning which is even more valuable than the specific skills they will learn in my classroom.
Our team of teachers have several years of online educational experience in various grade levels and subjects. Both of our teachers graduated college with honors and are life long learners themselves. We are excited to share our love of learning with your children!
