US Grade 1
In this full-curriculum course, students will learn, review and practice all crucial and required topics of 1st grade, from beginning to end, including counting, adding, subtracting, place value, time, money, word problems and more. This class is great for homeschoolers as this can be used as a full curriculum math course for the entire academic school year. At the beginning of class, the students and teacher will have a discussion about the topic(s) of the week so the teacher can assess the students’ prior knowledge of the subject. Throughout the class, the teacher will introduce and teach the topic(s) using the “I Do, We Do, You Do” method. This instructional method starts with the teacher giving an example, followed by the teacher and student solving a problem or completing a task together, then finally, the student is given a problem or task to complete on his/her own, with support given as necessary. All classes will include instruction, practice, and application problems (word problems). Homework should not take longer than 15-20 minutes per week **School Year 2024-2025** - Please see syllabus. Throughout the entire class, many discussion questions will be asked in order to promote critical thinking, help the students to relate to the lesson, and introduce each topic within the lesson. This class is best for any student ages 5 to 7, or those students looking to practice the 1st grade math objectives or skills. Students do not need to know the concepts or topics of the class beforehand. We will learn and review in class. The class materials will be presented and shared on the teacher's screen only. Learners will need nothing outside of the Outschool Zoom classroom.
