US Grade 6 - 8
Multiplying and dividing with ease is vital to a student's success in math class. Some college and university courses are now asking students to show their work without a calculator! You can Master Multiplication and Division concepts and skills in this fun, interactive class. For grades 6 to 8 students who want to feel more confident in math class. In this class students will be asked to participate and keep their videos on! This creates student-led learning, rather than teacher-led. We will learn a new concept each class, and take some time to review the previous material. We all use the interactive whiteboard, and I send the notes to the students after the class. Homework practice is assigned after each class. I follow Fishtank Learning (fishtanklearning.org), a curriculum that has been reviewed by EdReports (https://www.edreports.org) and received high ratings for providing students with the skills and knowledge they will need to succeed in college and beyond.
