This class is presented via a PowerPoint slideshow accompanied by teacher explanation. It gives step by step strategies for solving word problems featuring addition, subtraction, or both to find the answers. Cue words are identified to help the student know which math operation is necessary for solving the problem. UPDATE: Each finished problem adds another animal to the zoo! Another version of this class adds word problems solved with multiplication and division and can be used when the teacher is notified! (There is no zoo in this version)

Teacher expertise and credentials
West Virginia Teaching Certificate
I teach classes in many subjects. I am proficient in reading, grammar, and math. I also can teach science, history, social studies, and some Spanish.
I have a college degree in teaching and a permanent certificate. I have taught all subjects to fourth graders including everything involved in science fair participation. I then spent years working as a substitute teacher in all grades from TK through high school. I worked some long-term assignments in the high school teaching language arts, history, business education, job preparation, keyboarding, journalism, and credit recovery.
I believe education is most effective when it is remembered. I believe in creating projects with content and utilizing interactive journals. I have created games to help learn basic concepts in grammar and math. These will be listed as soon as possible! Education can be fun!!
When not working I like to crochet projects to be donated for use or as gifts to family members and I try to volunteer at a local center.
