As an introduction to mathematics program, I will assess the students' mathematical knowledge and reasoning skills with a quick inventory assessment of skills. I will complete informal assessments throughout the lessons. First, during the students' active engagement at the beginning of the lesson. Then, during the middle of the lesson during student application of new skills. At the end of the lesson, I will be assessing the students completed enrichment assignments and tasks along with their continue classwork.Class Experience
US Grade 3 - 5
Beginner Level
This math class is presented to students and has been developed using the fifth-sixth grade common core state standards for mathematics to develop the course of study for 5th and 6th grade students throughout the year.
Each chapter the students are introduced to a new math topic and concept presented in a multi-class format. This means that students can join and leave the class based on their needs to learn specific skills. Each lesson is presented as a standalone skill.
The overall structure of each lesson includes the following components: The lesson starts with a review of prior knowledge and a connection to the math skills. Next, the lesson introduces new math concepts, and the students discuss and apply their newly learned skills. Finally, the students complete a lesson activity so I can monitor their understanding of the new concept and provide more instruction if needed to understand new skill.
Below is a detailed list of the curriculum with the scope and sequence and specific meeting titles and dates that will be presented through a power point presentation in our new bitmoji classroom where students will meet to conduct their lessons and complete their math assignments.

Teacher expertise and credentials

Throughout my tenure as an elementary and special education classroom teacher I have taught math to a wide range of levels that include the Common Core Content standards in math. From kindergarten to 9th grade algebra and whole class/group instruction to small group intervention. I have taught different types of math programs from the traditional to investigations programs. I feel, each of these math programs have different strengths and weaknesses. I feel teaching a combination of new strategies and traditional techniques help students strengthen their mathematical reasoning and applications skills in mathematics.Reviews
