At the end of each lesson, a 5-10 problem quiz will be available for the student to complete and submit (optional). I will provide feedback as needed, as well as respond to any questions (typically within 24 hours).Class Experience
US Grade 1 - 4
A solid foundation with fraction operations is critical for becoming a proficient math student. Fluency with adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing will set learners up for success in higher level mathematics, working with rational equations or finding the slope of a line, just to name a couple of examples. I will provide the notes, examples, supporting activities and clear directions for students to seamlessly follow through each lesson. The student should complete all the activities for each of the lessons, as this will help them solidify their skills. I am available to answer questions posted in Outschool messages, typically within 24 hours. The suggested completion time is within 4 weeks; however, time can be extended if needed. Upon completion of the work, the student will have strengthened skills with their decimal operations, as well as making steps towards algebraic connections which support math proficiency.
Learning Goals
The student will:
-find the Least Common Multiple in order to add and subtract fractions
-find the Greatest Common Factor in order to simplify fractions
-change mixed numbers to improper fractions in order to multiply and divide fractions
