Calling all puzzle-loving kids! Join the monsters from Beast Academy as we tackle some challenging math puzzles together. We will be reading a comic-book style text where the monsters show strategies to add and subtract. Then we will work together to solve math puzzles and end our time with a game. If your child has a solid grasp of basic addition and subtraction and also loves sudoku-style puzzles and brain teasers, they will love this class! This class best fits students working at a 3rd-4th grade level in math. In the materials section you will see the students need a pencil and if possible a printed copy of the puzzles. This class is not endorsed or affiliated with AoPS or Beast Academy, but we will be using some of their free resources. If you do not have access to a printer, your student can still participate and use blank paper to copy the problems.
Learning Goals
Students will learn a strategy for adding 2-digit numbers and apply this skill to solve math puzzles.

I am a trained Orton Gillingham teacher, which is a multi I am also passionate about challenging students to develop a growth mindset and try difficult things. When I am not teaching or caring for my family, I am learning something new myself- how to paint with watercolors! I have not taken an art class since middle school, so it's been a big learning curve for me, but I'm enjoying it immensely.
