Class Experience

US Grade 7 - 8
Students will understand unit rates and ratios as a fraction over 1 or a set number of equivalent fractions. This is a concept introduced in 7th grade curriculum and reinforced in the 8th grade curriculum. We will practice setting up ratios and constant rates, and compare different proportional relationships in different ways using graphs and an equations. My lessons include slide presentations and worksheets to practice along during the lesson. I teach by showing examples, working through problems together, and then students practice on their own for a few problems. Then we check through their answers for understanding. I strongly encourage interaction between students and myself because communication and understanding of the vocabulary is so important.

Learning Goals

Students will be able to interpret unit rate as the slope of a graph and compare different proportional slope relationships on a graph.

Other Details

Supply List
A calculator, pencil, and paper would be useful. There are also worksheets attached to follow along with the lesson.

I'm Mrs. Essmeier, and I love teaching Mathematics. There are so many wonderful patterns to discover with numbers. Understanding why you use certain equations and how these concepts work is an important part of mathematics. My objective is to help my students to understand the connection between the math they learn and the real world in which they live. Mathematics is something you will use every day in one way or another. The more you know and understand, the more you will use. 

I provide one on one tutoring for one, two, or three days for one week or ongoing. My tutoring includes the topics found in the curricula for most 6th through 10th grades - number sense, equations, functions, graphing, geometry, fractions, decimals, and more.
I teach Monday - Friday. Please contact me to request times (include time zone) and days available.

I retired from teaching school after 39 years, but I'm not tired of teaching. I've been on Outschool since the fall of 2020. My various degrees include a Bachelor of Arts degree in Elementary Education, a Masters degree in Mathematics Education, a Math Specialist enhanced level 2, and an ESL endorsement. My teaching experiences include grades 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th for 30 years. I then moved to the middle school and taught 7th and 8th grade for nine years.
I do hope to help many more learners understand and appreciation the beauty and need for mathematics.
