Class Experience

US Grade 6

Do you like jokes and riddles? Do you like to solve riddles and jokes while doing your math page? Then this class is for you! We focus on 3D geometry concepts at a sixth grade level in this self-paced class.

This self-paced class includes 2 lessons and 2 printables each week, with a bonus lesson and printable in week 3, with a total of 7 lessons and 7 printables! Each lesson consists of a video that is 8-13 minutes long and a printable. In the video, I will clearly explain the math concept, model the math concept, and give you a time to try the math concept. Parents and children should pause the video at this time, complete the math example, then unpause to watch the steps for the answer. After that, it is independent work time, where you will pause the video to complete the math joke or riddle page. Pages are self-correcting, so you can check your answers as you complete the page. Answers are also shown at the end of the video. All of the riddles and jokes are spring related in this class.

The total time for each lesson will range from 20-35 minutes, depending on the pace of your child and the difficulty of the math concept.

Concepts included cover sixth grade math standards and are:
lesson 1: Volume of rectangular prisms
lesson 2: Surface area of rectangular prisms
lesson 3: Volume of triangular prisms
lesson 4: Surface area of triangular prisms
lesson 5: Volume of complex figures
lesson 6: Surface area of complex figures
lesson 7: Problem solving with volume and surface area

Direct, explicit instruction and Singapore math methods are used.

Learning Goals

Students will learn about 3D shapes, including rectangular prisms and triangular prisms. They will determine the volume and surface area of rectangular prisms, triangular prisms, and complex shapes, and solve problems involving volume and surface area.
