We will learn math tricks that help with estimation and problems that can be used for life to solve. If practiced this can help with future math classes and real life. 

I am a certified teacher in Texas and have taught basic math to my students during my 20 year teaching career.  My joy is learning new math tricks or skills and passing it on to my students since I believe there is more than one ways often to find the right answer.  If an answer is easier to come about through another way then it becomes a trick that is useful.  It can also become a method of estimation and shows the magic of numbers.  The magic or love of numbers will dispel a fear of mathematics for some and turn something they hate to something they love.  That is my goal.
I have taken Algebra, Trigonometry and Calculus, but just truly love the natural world of numbers.  

Homework Offered
Unless students practice the techniques presented here they will not retain them.  I, myself, have learned these techniques, but still find I have to refresh what I know and reinforce the skills.
Assessments Offered
Ongoing to ensure each child masters the subject taught. These skills will require reinforcement to remember and use. Some like the multiplication of fives is easier to remember. 
Grades Offered
