Beginner Level
Mastering essential middle and high school math skills is crucial for achieving success in mathematics. A strong math foundation is necessary to comprehend advanced concepts, making learning much easier and more effective. Class Structure: Each week, students will learn and practice a new essential skill. Every session will end with a summary of the material covered and a preview of what's coming next! Student will receive review notes at the conclusion of each session. The class structure is purposed to introduce foundational skills needed for middle math (6th, 7th and 8th grade). You can join our class at any time! Teaching Style: Student-Centered Research proves that a student-centered instructional model is key to learning! Interaction Level: Medium to High !!! Students will have an opportunity to engage with me and each other through games, video clips and discussions! It is my first priority to ensure the safety of all students so open chat and open microphone will be limited. All interactive activities are selected to maximize learning while providing a safe environment to do so!
Learning Goals
Students will learn a new essential math skill weekly based on the book, Mastering Essential Skills by Richard W. Fisher.
