In this slower-paced, hands-on course students will review (4th/5th/6th grade) key concepts and ideas that are built upon in 6th grade and on. This course will cover material in a hands-on manner. Students need to bring a calculator, paper, pencil to every class. If other materials are required they will be posted 24 hours in advance. Please note students need to have completed 6th grade before enrolling. This is not an exhaustive course, the primary focus is skills students will need to be successful. Each class will follow the following format: Warm Up activity, exploration, and tie in to Middle School Math. This is a high involvement class, so students should come to class with cameras and microphones on in a quiet location. The topics each week will be as follows: Winter/Spring Week of March 24: Percents as fractions Week of March 31: Identify the part/whole/percent in a word problem Week of April 7: Solving Word Problems involving Percentages Week of April 14: Solving word problems with ratios and rates Week of April 21: Solving Word problems with ratios and rates Week of April 28: Advanced problem solving-writing an equation with a variable Week of May 5: Working with variables Week of May 12: Positive/Negative Numbers

I am a non traditional teacher, no lectures here!
Instead my classes focus on being:
*Student Centered- they lead the pace
*Critical Thinking -complex tasks are given that may be a bit unusual but will cause students to think deeply
*Problem Solving- word problems to keep concepts in context
*Focus on discovering patterns- patterns is the basis of the study of algebra and higher levels of math thinking
*Students create their understanding versus being told what to think
I am constantly learning how to become a better math teacher! I have a Master's degree in Math Education but I don't believe that means I know everything. In fact I am constantly reading about the brain, and the best ways to teach math. I also am constantly evaluating my classes and content and making changes based on how learners interact with the material.
I have 13 years of experience in Education, and have taught math at all levels including adults.

In my down time, I love hanging with my husband, and two girls. We love to read books, play games and do math together (of course:)Reviews
