**This is a self-paced class; there are no live meetings. Learners will watch the video content and interact with the different activities at their own pace. In this 6-lesson self-paced course, we will cover advanced fractions operations - adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing proper fractions, improper fractions, and mixed numbers. This course is ideal for learners who already have a basic foundation in fractions and are wanting to expand on their current knowledge in the areas of advanced operations with all fraction types. Each lesson learners will watch a series of mini-lecture videos on the topic of the week where I will teach the weekly content and work through a series of examples for learners to reference as they complete the weekly activities. There will also be an activity and/or project for the week in addition to video notes worksheets, practice worksheets, weekly challenge questions (posted myself and also created by the learners), and a weekly mini-quiz to complete to further expand on the learner's understanding of the weekly topic. Weekly Topics: Week 1: Defining Types of Fractions & Converting Between Improper Fractions & Mixed Numbers Week 2: Simplifying Fractions (Using Factors & Divisibility Rules) Week 3: Adding/Subtracting Fractions & Mixed Numbers (Like Denominators) Week 4: Adding/Subtracting Fractions & Mixed Numbers (Unlike Denominators) Week 5: Multiplying Proper Fractions & Mixed Numbers Week 6: Dividing Proper Fractions & Mixed Numbers
Learning Goals
This course is designed to increase learner confidence with defining and performing operations with proper fractions through videos and interactive activities.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My name is Ms. Sarah! I am very excited to meet you! I recently finished 8 years of college and graduated with my Doctorate degree in Audiology (diagnosing and treating hearing and balance disorders) in May 2020! I have been a teacher in many ways over the last 13 years. I am a 5th degree black belt in taekwondo and have been teaching taekwondo to students ages 4-18 over the last 14 years. I have also been a math tutor for more than 11 years, teaching students math concepts ranging from basic mathematics learned in K5 through high school algebra II, both face-to-face and virtually. Other math prep courses I have taught include several ACT standardized testing math prep courses. In the last couple of years I have added teaching ESL (English as a Second Language) virtually to international students ages 4-15. I have a strong passion for teaching, and I love helping students succeed and become more confident and independent. I enjoy taekwondo, traveling, reading, fishing, and spending time with my family. I can't wait to meet you, and I hope to see your learner in my classroom soon!!Reviews
