Welcome to my math word problems class! In this class, we will be learning how to analyze (what is the problem asking for?), break down, and solve word problems with addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. We will cover whole numbers and fractions within our word problem solving and complete whole group, guided, and independent practice each class to build our math word problem fluency. This class is structured as a small group lesson, once per week. Week of September 16th: How to Solve a Word Problem- breaking it down step by step! Week of September 23rd: OFF THIS WEEK! Week of September 30th: Whole Number Word Problems- Single Step (addition and subtraction) Week of October 7th: Whole Number Word Problems- Single Step (multiplication and division) Week of October 14th: Whole Number Word Problems- Multi-Step (all operations) Week of October 21st: MORE Whole Number Word Problems- Multi-Step (all operations) Week of October 28th: Beginner Fraction Word Problems- Single and Multi-Step (all operations) Week of November 4th: Beginner Decimal/Money Word Problems- Single and Multi-Step (all operations) Week of November 11th: Mixed Word Problem Practice! Week of November 18th: MORE Mixed Word Problem Practice! I truly believe that every student can learn. In my years as a special education teacher, I have assisted many struggling math students. My style is enthusiastic and uplifting. I feel strongly about the importance of positive reinforcement and verbal praise in sessions. I will keep your learner engaged with fun ways to grasp concepts and interact with material. I teach using both verbal and visual models and aids. This small group summer camp will have constant interaction between learners and myself. Each class will have a similar format structured around the word problem topic of the class. I will lecture to teach the concept, with interactive questions throughout. We will be using PowerPoint slides. YouTube links will be added to our Classroom Posts with short clips to further explain examples for each concept visually. We will discuss each concept and complete practice questions as a whole group and independently within the PowerPoint slides. After the class, I will provide a note sheet/"cheat sheet" with steps for word problems and specific examples to save for future reference! This on-going class requires some prior understanding of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division with whole numbers, decimals, and fractions. However, learners at all ability and knowledge levels will be supported "where they are"!
Learning Goals
Students will learn how to solve a word problem. Students practice solving word problems with whole numbers, decimals, and fractions using addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, through whole-group and independent class activities.Other Details
Supply List
Learners should have a pencil and scratch paper for this course. Learners may also want to have a basic calculator (optional). I will provide a "cheat sheet" after class with the steps to solving a word problem and examples as a reminder for learners and to supplement the lesson. Learners are encouraged to keep their "cheat sheet" handy for the next time they might be solving word problems!
