This class is an excellent class that will focus on mastering adding and subtracting fractions with like and unlike denominators. This is an excellent class for students new to fractions or those who need a refresher to master this skill. The class will take an "I Do," "We Do," "You Do" teaching approach. Learners will learn from visual slides and demonstrations by the teacher, discussion, and feedback. Students will have the opportunity to work on the whiteboard in class if their device allows. Otherwise, students are encouraged to use a whiteboard and marker in class to solve the problems. Class is taught by a licensed teacher with a Master's in Education.
