Description
Class Experience
This is the sixth course in a series of small group classes for middle school math. These classes are a hybrid of individualized learning and traditional classes. Each section has no more than five learners which provides a foundation for strong relationships, social-emotional learning, and truly individualized instruction. This series is based on an accelerated math curriculum that covers three years of content, aligned to Common Core Math Standards, over the course of two school years. It...
6.NS.C Apply and extend previous understandings of numbers to the system of rational numbers. 7.NS.A Apply and extend previous understandings of operations with fractions to add, subtract, multiply, and divide rational numbers. 7.EE.A Use properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions. 7.EE.B Solve real-life and mathematical problems using numerical and algebraic expressions and equations. 7.RP.A Analyze proportional relationships and use them to solve real-world and mathematical problems. 6.G.A Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving area, surface area, and volume. 7.MP.1 Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. 7.MP.2 Reason abstractly and quantitatively. 7.MP.3 Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. 7.MP.4 Model with mathematics. 7.MP.5 Use appropriate tools strategically. 7.MP.6 Attend to precision. 7.MP.7 Look for and make use of structure. 7.MP.8 Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
I have been completed three college-level courses on common-core math instruction. I have worked as a math instructor for middle school students in a private school setting. I have ten years of experience as a math tutor including working with students from ages 5 (kindergarten) to 25 (Graduate Readiness Exam).
Students may have ten-fifteen minutes of practice each day depending on time management during class. Each day students will be given one practice problem to complete neatly in notebooks.
Learners will need standard school supplies such as a notebook, pencil, ruler, highlighter, scissors, and tape/glue.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Learners will receive weekly written reports.
4 hours 10 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.
We will be using nearpod during this class. Students will need to click a link in chat and enter their first name or initial into the program. Students should be reminded not to use their full name. Students will also need access to scissors and may require adult supervision or support.
