Master Order of Operations (No Exponents)!

Have you ever seen the Facebook posts that ask for the answer to a complicated math problem, and adults are arguing over what the correct answer is? Most of learned about PEMDAS (or BEDMAS) in school, but many of us are still confused about the order of operations. 

Learning the Order of Operations is a vital step in math education because it helps students solve equations throughout the rest of their educational careers (and beyond). Mastering these steps will give your student confidence as they prepare for and move into algebra and more advanced mathematics.

In this class, we will learn the Order of Operations  without the use of exponents. This class is perfect for late elementary schoolers (fourth to fifth grade) who have not learned how to use exponents yet. Your learner does not need to have learned the Order of Operations yet; in this class we will approach these steps completely fresh and practice towards mastery. Students will be introduced to the Order of Operations and practice the steps with support. Afterwards, students will be challenged to use the Order of Operations for an escape room game.

I teach via Google Slides and provide students with opportunities to answer with support and independently. I incorporate games into my classroom to make learning fun. 

Invite your friends! This class is ideal with two or more learners. If only one learner is enrolled, I may present you with the options to:
1) Continue with one learner
2) Transfer to a different section with other learners
3) Refund the class
