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! This self-paced grade 6 math class includes 2 lessons and 2 printables (worksheets) each week, for a total of 6 classes and 6 printables! Each lesson consists of a video that is 11-23 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 or children should pause the video at this time, complete the math examples, 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 with the answer to the joke or riddle 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, and cover sixth grade math standards. The total time for each lesson will range from 25-60 minutes, depending on the pace of your child and the difficulty of the math concept. For some lessons, I recommend doing the lesson and try it! portions then completing the printable the next day, which would give you 4 days of math work. Concepts included are Direct, explicit instruction and Singapore math methods are used to teach the concepts. The following 3 courses will give a student a complete math curriculum for the third trimester of 6th grade: Math Jokes & Riddles 6: Coordinate Plane Math Jokes & Riddles 6: 2D Geometry Math Jokes & Riddles 6: 3D Geometry Math Jokes & Riddles 6: Data and Graphs
