Class Experience

US Grade 4 - 5
In each class meeting, Direct Instruction will occur on a specific 4th/5th grade math topic. What that means is that I will explicitly teach each component of the skill, we will practice it together, and then students will perform the skill independently. Each student will leave the course with optional practice materials to complete outside of class. We will be loosely following the Saxon Math series, supplemented by Morningside Math Facts.

Upcoming topics:

8/12/23: Math Fact Races
8/19/23: Regrouping Refresher
8/26/23: Piloting the Coordinate Plane
9/2/23: Polygonpalooza!

Other Details

Parental Guidance
Students may be asked to access a Gimkit game or a Classkick link. Neither of these activities will require them to sign in.
Supply List
Scrap paper and pencil or a whiteboard and marker are required. If you have access to a printer, I'll be sending optional materials to continue study outside of class.
External Resources
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Sources
I loosely follow the Saxon Math curriculum scope and sequence, but teaching with Direct Instruction and Precision Teaching methodology. I use Morningside Math Facts for increasing fluency.

Teacher expertise and credentials
West Virginia Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Hello! I'm looking forward to providing your child with focused instruction in their areas of need! Please reach out so that we may work together to develop a tutoring plan that fits your child's needs as well as your budget and schedule.

I'm a certified teacher in the state of West Virginia with credentials in Elementary K - 6 General Education and Mild/Moderate Mental Impairments K - Adult Special Education.  I've worked in the fields of education and applied behavior analysis for 20 years, most recently as a math teacher in grades 3 - 8 in a virtual charter school program. Prior to this assignment, I was the lead teacher in a program transitioning learners with autism from 1:1 behavior therapy to group academic instruction. I was also the lead staff in a tutoring program helping K - 6 students catch up to grade level in math and reading. I was fortunate to be able to attend Morningside Academy's Summer Institute in 2017, receiving training in Direct Instruction and Precision Teaching. For over a decade, I've worked with learners who use augmentative communication devices/speech-generating devices such as LAMP: Words for Life and Vantage Lite, and I'm comfortable teaching learners who use those modalities.

I'm the author of four middle grade novels, most recently FREE VERSE and  ASHES TO ASHEVILLE (G.P. Putnam's Sons/Penguin Random House), and I spent six years teaching a weekly writing class for middle grade students at Cabell County Public Library in Huntington, WV. I volunteer at Heart of Phoenix Equine Rescue, Inc., and I share my home with an elderly dog, a smattering of cats, and one delightful 14-year-old human!
