Average rating:5.0Number of reviews:(87)
The first session (8 weeks) of this engaging year-long course will use fun activities and games to focus on establishing a clear understanding of fractions as equal shares, equivalent fractions, comparing, adding and subtracting fractions.

Class experience

US Grade 5
Students will be able to demonstrate mastery of the following:
--identifying and calculating a fraction of a number (⅔ of 12)
--matching a visual representation of a fraction of one to it’s written form
--identifying the denominator and numerator of a fraction
--understanding fractions as equal sharing (division)
--identifying and using various strategies for:
	-finding equivalent fractions
	-comparing fractions
	-adding and subtracting fractions

I am a certified teacher (Grades 1-6) with a Masters in Teaching, as well as a Masters in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages). I have over 20 years of classroom, small group and one-on-one teaching experience. Math has been my focus for the past 7 years, and I have taught this specific 5th grade Mastery Math Method for 5 years.
Homework Offered
Homework will be assigned after each class through various materials posted to the Outschool Classroom. This should generally not take more than 2-3 hours total per week to complete. Additionally, on class days I suggest that students take a few minutes directly following class to finish any assigned classwork they were unable to complete
1 - 2 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
Ongoing informal assessment through interactive student activities and responses, as well as monitoring student classwork and homework. Weekly lesson quizzes and a final unit test at the end of the session will also be given. Parents, please contact me about the level of assessment and feedback you prefer for your student.
Grades Offered
-Notebook and pencil for taking notes and working problems
--I will post further materials or workbooks needed in the classroom after enrollment (cost of materials will not exceed $50 for the entire year)

Optional (may be helpful to have some of these as visuals/manipulatives if available at home):
--base ten or other math blocks 
--small snacks such as raisins or Cheerios
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
We will be using the third-party websites listed below that provide interactive, fun opportunities for building mastery and fluency of math concepts and skills:
Nearpod: Educational, interactive tool for presenting my own slide-show lessons and activities (such as matching, drag-and-drop, etc.) I will post a direct link in the Zoom chat that will take students directly into the lesson, they only need to enter their first name or nickname so that I know who is who within the lesson. * No account or personal information needed.
Google Jamboard: A great interactive tool for collaborative learning and sharing ideas. I will send a direct link in the Zoom chat that will allow students to enter directly into the specific Jamboard without any kind of sign-up * No account or personal information needed
IXL: This is a great site for practicing specific math skills and concepts. As a teacher, I really like it because I can assign specific sections that line up exactly with the concepts/skills we've covered in class, and be able to see students' progress on that skill. I will provide students with individual usernames and passwords, so no family account or personal information will be needed. Most students find the site fun and motivating, but please let me know if your student finds it stressful--I will find an alternative.
Blooket and Gimkit: Students love playing these fun, fast-paced games with math question banks that I am able to create and tailor to the needs of the class. The report I see after each game serves as a great informal assessment. I will post a direct link in the Zoom chat, students will simply enter their first name of nickname and begin playing the game. *No account or personal information needed 
Google Slides: I will usually use Google Slides to present lessons through the screen share function, but may at times give students the link for activities or games that I have created. *No account or personal information needed
Google Forms: Each week's Lesson quiz will be on a Google Form, the link to which will be posted in the classroom  *No account or personal information needed
