This is part 2 of the All In One Math Camp, however, you don't need to have completed part one because this class will focus on completely different skills. Remembering the multitude of steps when solving math problems is a whole lot easier when you have a teacher who can give you the tips and tricks to help you become independent and confident!! This is a low-stress math camp. Students will review skills and complete "toolboxes" to use as guides for those times when they may forget a skill in the future. As with all of my multi-day math courses, the following outline may change if I determine that the students need more practice with a particular skill. Week 1 Number Theory: class 1: Finding multiples, factors, and the prime factorization of numbers class 2: Rounding to the nearest ten, hundred, thousand in whole numbers Rounding to the nearest dollar for money amounts Week 2 Statistics class 1: analyzing data from charts and tables class 2: finding mean, median, mode, range from data Week 3: Integers class 1: understanding, comparing, ordering integers, finding the absolute value of a number class 2: adding and subtracting integers (if time, we will touch on multiplication and division) Week 4: Algebra class 1: understanding vocabulary, translating verbal to numerical algebraic expressions class 2: solving 1 variable equations with whole numbers and checking work(if time, we will delve into combining like variables) Week 5: Geometry class 1: finding area and perimeter of quadrilaterals and triangles class 2: solving for the missing angle of a triangle or quadrilateral. I expect students to come prepared to class with worksheets and writing tools. I also expect students to be polite to the teacher and other students. Remember, this is a low-stress class and there is no need to get upset-we will do this together!! Students need to enter class on mute and with the camera on AND keep the camera on throughout the class so I can gauge expressions for frustration and check work in progress.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello Parents! I am a retired Special Education Teacher with over 30 years of experience teaching grades 3-8 in all subject areas. I am dual certified with a BS/MS in Special and Regular Education in preschool through grade 12. At OutSchool, I offer educational classes in math that are engaging and geared toward the students in the class. I usually work with grade 3-7 students and provide a variety of math classes from private tutoring to group classes and camps on multiple skills, as well as single skill classes such as order of operations, algebra, integers, liquid measurement, and many many more! If necessary, I also modify my classes by scaffolding material for the different levels of students I may have. I am my students' biggest cheerleader and use humor to take the fear out of learning material that may be difficult. Everyone will learn!
I love teaching and want my students to enjoy learning. In addition to teaching, I love gardening and reading, my 2 adult children, Gina and Ryan, and my crazy dog, Luna. She just may show up from time to time in my classroom! I also own my own business working with parents and children on ways to manage stress, whether it's school-related or life-related, and I teach Reiki to adults.
