I will help students build upon their knowledge of multiplication & division facts to solve multi-digit and multi-step real world problems. This is a skill that requires students to think logically about how to come up with the correct answer to the question in the problem. Students will practice multiple strategies for solving problems including: bar modeling, partial products, partial quotients, area models, algorithms, and long division. Students should have their basic multiplication and division facts memorized in order to free up brain space to solve more complex math problems. With repeated practice in each class session, children should increase their confidence and accuracy rate.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Iowa Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
Hello, my name is Kathleen Bernath Jenkins and I am a recently retired elementary public school teacher in Missouri. I have a bachelor's degree in elementary education and a master's degree in differentiated instructional methods. Most recently, I have taught fourth-grade students the core academic skills: reading, grammar, writing, math, science, and social studies.
I have a passion for teaching children the skills needed for them to be successful citizens. I believe all children can achieve success at school by differentiating instructional methods, which allows for individual growth and expression. My approach to teaching is to focus on best practices, those proven to be successful across all educational settings: teacher modeling and interaction with students, setting clear objectives at the start of each lesson, encouraging group participation, and debriefing together at the close of a lesson.
Besides my love of teaching, I also have a greenhouse and enjoy growing and propagating plants, especially tropical and rare varieties!Reviews
