Welcome to 8th Grade Summer Math review where students will learn and review their objectives in a fun and engaging way by using Nearpod & Blooket! This class is perfect for students who are entering 8th grade or want a review on the 8th grade math objectives Every lesson will be taught as if it was new to the student to ensure that they understand the material. The lesson will be fun and engaging as they will get to play fun games to reinforce the lesson, do activities like drag and drop activities and many more activities that can be found within Nearpod Students will be able to participate in the class by various formats. They can come off mute and ask questions, they can show their work on the Nearpod, or they can ask questions on the chatbox. I love to ensure students are understanding the material, therefore students will be asked questions throughout the lesson. **Nearpod is a fun and interactive platform that students love because it is extremely hands-on. Students will NOT need a paid account to access it. They will receive a link prior to class and at the beginning of the class to simply click on it and login** Please note that for classes with more than 1 learner, class may be muted to ensure there is no noise in the background.
