This class will teach 7th grade standards. Students will learn real-life examples and concrete ways to see math concepts. I will use virtual manipulatives and examples that will make learning math easy and understandable. Week 1: Scientific Notation Week 2: Multiply and Divide Scientific Notation Week 3: Translations, Reflections Week 4: Rotations, Dilations Week 5: Volume Cylinders and Cones Week 6: Volume of Prisms and Pyramids Week 7: Volume of Spheres Week 8: Irrational numbers, locating and approximating irrational numbers Week 9: Review for final and final exam At the beginning of each class, we will have a short informal review to assess how well they understood the previous concept and give help as needed. During the lesson, I teach with lots of interaction. I give examples and teach the concepts. Throughout the lesson, the students are doing several problems infused in the lesson so they can practice the skills as we go along. I use fun games to review concepts. Students should have a basic knowledge of 6th-grade math skills, including multiplication and division. It is important to me to be able to assess students throughout the class, so I recommend students keep their cameras open during the class so I am able to help them throughout the class period. Homework for this class will be given on Khan Academy. You should expect to spend about 30 minutes a day.
Learning Goals
Students will master the 7th grade standards and be introduced to 8th grade standards.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I teach math, but I have a passion for photography and personal money management as well. My background includes teaching in the public/charter school setting for the past 26 years. I have taught from kindergarten to Algebra, but a large portion of my experience has been teaching Jr High. I teach pre-algebra, 7th grade, and 8th-grade math. I received my Bachelor of Science from the University of Arizona in Elem. Education with a minor in Mathematics and my M Ed from Arizona State University in math education. I have been a professional photographer as a side gig for the past 10 years. I have taught money managing workshops to adults on occasion and helped many people one on one with easy ways to manage their finances.
My personal philosophy is that to learn, you have to do, so my teaching involves a lot of interaction between myself and my students. I teach, then they try it. Then they try it, again and again, interacting with my teaching. I feel it's important to get immediate feedback so I can see what they are understanding and help them with the things they are struggling with. We use a lot of whiteboards. I try to make every concept meaningful in some way and over the years, I have found ways to break it down and make, what could be complicated material, into something easy to understand.
I have a large family that includes 17 nieces and nephews that I am very close to. I love spending time with them. My interest in photography began by taking photos of them and their families. I enjoy being outdoors and my favorite exercise is hiking. I grew up hiking the Grand Canyon with my family. Now I like to hike around the mountains close to my home.Reviews
