Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 4
In this one time class students will use cookies, cereal or counters to learn beginning division in a hands-on way.  The Doorbell Rang will be read and we will discuss how to divide the cookies up among the children in the story. Basic fractions will also be a topic of discussion depending on the students' readiness. I will be using interactive slides to demonstrate how the students should be dividing up their cookies. We will then learn how to write the division equations that represent each problem we have solved with our cookies. I will check for understanding at the end of the lesson by using a game.
Learning Goals
Students will be able to equally divide objects into groups and write the corresponding division equation.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.3.OA.A.2
Interpret whole-number quotients of whole numbers, e.g., interpret 56 ÷ 8 as the number of objects in each share when 56 objects are partitioned equally into 8 shares, or as a number of shares when 56 objects are partitioned into equal shares of 8 objects each. For example, describe a context in which a number of shares or a number of groups can be expressed as 56 ÷ 8.

Hi, friends! Welcome to my class! My courses are in all elementary academic areas along with some crafting classes.  I love teaching! I come to you with 20 years of teaching experience and have taught all subjects in grades PK-4.  I earned my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Elementary Education from Ball State University. I hold an Ohio Teaching License in grades Pre-K through 5.  I truly believe that everyone is gifted in some way, so I try to find the strengths in my students to assist in learning new material. It is my goal to make learning easy and fun.  Currently, I live in Ohio and spend my days at home with my two children. My husband teaches high school World History and coaches golf.  I enjoy crocheting, scrapbooking, golfing, and using my Cricut to make unique gifts.
