Class Experience

Did you know that when presented with fractions, most students want to turn and run because they "hate" them? If your student is in that category, then this class is for you! 
As we explore adding and subtracting fractions, we will discover what it means to add and subtract fractions, why you need to have like denominators, and how to use models to helps solve problems. Through lecture, discussion, and interactive participation, students will understand WHY you must add and subtract with like denominators, practice number sense, and connect adding and subtracting fractions to the real world (discussing and modeling examples of adding and subtracting fractions in real life). 

Students should have completed my "What is a Fraction?" class, or they should have an understanding of what a fraction is and are able to model fractions. For example, students should be able to look at the fraction "1/4" and be able to draw a picture representation of the fraction.

Learning Goals

Students will understand why fractions must have like denominators before adding and subtracting. 
Students will be able to draw and solve addition and subtraction problems with fractions that have like denominators. 
Students will be able to use addition and subtraction of fractions to represent real-world scenarios.

Other Details

Supply List
Students will need some type of writing materials to draw fraction models: colored pencils and paper or a dry-erase board and markers. Ability to print PDF's is helpful, but not necessary - a notes page and a practice page will be available to print if desired.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Arkansas Teaching Certificate in Mathematics
Hello Everyone! My name is Mrs. Holman, and I LOVE math!

I have spent the last 8+ years teaching and tutoring math students of all ages, both online and in person! I am currently a math teacher, certified for 4-12 math with a BA in Mathematics and my M.A.T. (Master of Arts in Teaching). 

Math is all around us, and I am passionate about opening students' eyes to the beauty of math. I strive to teach every student the WHY behind the WHAT - when students understand the reason why math works, they are far more likely to retain and enjoy what they learn! I use real-world scenarios, discussion, and discovery learning to help guide students toward their goals, giving them the tools to not only learn math, but to problem solve as well. Every student can learn — with a little hard work and the right explanation, EVERYONE can understand math! 

I love learning, piano, reading, playing board games with my husband, and daughter, and I am excited to be a part of the Outschool online learning community!

*I will be taking maternity leave in September, and will not be scheduling any new live classes after the 3rd week of August, but FLEX classes are still available.*
