The order of the mathematical operations does matter. Understanding parentheses, addition, division, brackets, subtraction, exponents, etc can determine the correct outcome to a mathematical problem.This class uses examples, a short video, and several different ways to remember the order. I teach from a slide presentation. There are several examples, practice problems, and challenging puzzles. I always encourage participation from the learners. I work through the problems with them so no one needs to struggle with the computations. A worksheet is provided for practice as we go through the lesson.
Learning Goals
Students will be able to perform mathematical computations using the correct order of operations.

Supply List
A worksheet to run off before the class is provided for practice problems used during the class. A calculator might be useful.

I'm Mrs. Essmeier, and I love teaching Mathematics. There are so many wonderful patterns to discover with numbers. Understanding why you use certain equations and how these concepts work is an important part of mathematics. My objective is to help my students to understand the connection between the math they learn and the real world in which they live. Mathematics is something you will use every day in one way or another. The more you know and understand, the more you will use.
I provide one on one tutoring for one, two, or three days for one week or ongoing. My tutoring includes the topics found in the curricula for most 6th through 10th grades - number sense, equations, functions, graphing, geometry, fractions, decimals, and more.
I teach Monday - Friday. Please contact me to request times (include time zone) and days available.
I retired from teaching school after 39 years, but I'm not tired of teaching. I've been on Outschool since the fall of 2020. My various degrees include a Bachelor of Arts degree in Elementary Education, a Masters degree in Mathematics Education, a Math Specialist enhanced level 2, and an ESL endorsement. My teaching experiences include grades 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th for 30 years. I then moved to the middle school and taught 7th and 8th grade for nine years.
I do hope to help many more learners understand and appreciation the beauty and need for mathematics.Reviews
