The learning goals for this class are to help students learn mental math strategies that will not only give them some new skills to help them solve equations, but my hope is that students will enjoy learning to solve equations mentally and quickly. This skill will also hopefully encourage students to begin to identify the patterns in math and grow in their math skills. Learning to solve equations mentally is not only a helpful skill, but it can also be a lot of fun to do once you get the hang of it.
No homework will be assigned. However, I will encourage students to continue to practice at home the things they have learned in class.
Having a piece of paper and something to write with close by would be helpful, but not necessary.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
45 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
