Description

Class Experience

 In this course, students will engage in math talks through many different activities using an under the sea theme. Math talks are a great way for students to develop number sense and mathematical thinking necessary for today's mathematics. The Common Core Mathematics focuses on the Standards for Mathematical Practice. The idea behind these mathematical thinking and practices is to give students the tools they need to solve problems and to become lifelong, independent learners. These skills...

Students will be able to count and compare numbers, represent and solve problems involving addition and subtraction, work with numbers 11-19 to gain foundations for place value, identify and describe shapes, analyze, compare, create, and compose shapes, and represent and interpret data.

I am an elementary school librarian at a preK-grade 2 school. Before that, I was a first grade teacher for 6 years. During over 8 years of elementary teaching experience, I have taught math to many students. I think a strong foundation of number sense and mathematical thinking at a young age is crucial to future mathematical success. Math talks with fun activities were one of the best ways I found to achieve this goal!

2 dice and something to write on (pencil and paper or a whiteboard) would be beneficial but not required.

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

2 hours 5 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
