This class will use formulas to find the perimeters and areas of squares, rectangles, triangles, and circles. Each of these concepts will have real world examples, as well. I teach with a slide presentation to model the concepts, practice together with the learners, and provide several independent practice problems. I strongly encourage discussion and participation from the learners as we go through the lesson. There's a worksheet for notes provided. Other worksheets can be provided, if requested, to follow along with the lesson.
Learning Goals
Students will be able to use the formulas for finding the area of squares, rectangles, and triangles. Using these formulas, students will also find the surface areas of rectangular and triangular prisms.Students will understand the difference between area and circumference of a circle and be able to compute both measurements.
Other Details
Supply List
A calculator, pencil, and paper would be helpful. If you run off the worksheets that go along with the lesson, they will be able to work on their own or use them for practice later. An attached file with basic notes for Area would also be useful.
3 files available upon enrollment

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

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
