Class experience
US Grade 5 - 7
Students will be taught strategies that develop true, deep understanding of the concepts introduced during camp. This is a four day camp and each day will be packed with learning and brain building activities. At the end of camp students will be given a handout to help remind them of the major ideas presented! I will do my best to tailor the content to student interests by giving them a short survey at the beginning of the first day. I will then use the responses when finalizing...
Learning Goals: - Understand ratio concepts and use ratio reasoning to solve problems - Understand unit rate and ratio relationships - Work with algebraic expressions (using variables in place of numbers) - Write and evaluate expressions at specific variable values - Understand solving an equation or inequality as a process of answering a question: which values generate a solution? - Write expression and equations to solve real-world problems - Review work from first three days - Work with area of triangles and other polygons - Find volume and surface area of prisms We will also discuss what life is like in middle school throughout camp.
I have taught middle school math for over twenty years. I have a masters degree in education from Johns Hopkins University. I love showing students the amazing connections and patterns found in math. And I love encouraging my students to engage and question so that they deeply understand what is going on. We are not just memorizing!
