At the end of each lesson, a 5-10 problem quiz will be available for students to complete and submit (optional). I will provide feedback and answer questions as needed, typically within 24 hours.Class Experience
US Grade 2 - 4
A solid foundation with arithmetic operations is critical for becoming a proficient math student. Fluency will set learners up for success when working on higher level skills, such as finding slope of a line, or working with math formulas. I will provide video tutorials, examples, supporting activities and clear directions for students to seamlessly follow through each lesson. The student will be expected to watch the videos (when applicable) and take notes as they move through the lessons, as this will help them understand the examples and complete the activities. I will also be available to answer questions posted in Outschool messages- I typically respond within 24 hours. The suggested time frame for completion is within 12 weeks; however, time can be extended if necessary. Upon completion of the course, the student will have strengthened skills with their whole number operations, fractions and decimals, as well as taken great strides towards making algebraic connections which support math proficiency.
Learning Goals
The student will:
-solve simple one-step equations
-evaluate expressions using the order of operations
-find the Least Common Multiple to add and subtract fractions
-learn proper decimal placement when performing decimal operations
