US Grade 4 - 6
In this class students will practice converting mixed numbers to improper fractions, making fractions a percent or decimal, and making percents and decimals into fractions. We will begin by seeing an example of making an improper fraction a mixed number and executing a few examples for practice. Then we will reverse the process and make mixed numbers into improper fractions. We will watch an example of making a fraction into a percent or decimal and then complete a few for practice. Then we will again reverse the process and turn percents and decimals into fractions. Students should have experience with fractions and know place value to the thousandths place. Once we have seen the procedures and practiced them we will play a board game where each spot will ask for one of these conversions. This practice in a game format will make the skill more fun and allow for better retention. One die will be used by the learner for advancement on the board. The teacher will roll for any student who does not have a die.

Teacher expertise and credentials
West Virginia Teaching Certificate
I teach classes in many subjects. I am proficient in reading, grammar, and math. I also can teach science, history, social studies, and some Spanish.
I have a college degree in teaching and a permanent certificate. I have taught all subjects to fourth graders including everything involved in science fair participation. I then spent years working as a substitute teacher in all grades from TK through high school. I worked some long-term assignments in the high school teaching language arts, history, business education, job preparation, keyboarding, journalism, and credit recovery.
I believe education is most effective when it is remembered. I believe in creating projects with content and utilizing interactive journals. I have created games to help learn basic concepts in grammar and math. These will be listed as soon as possible! Education can be fun!!
When not working I like to crochet projects to be donated for use or as gifts to family members and I try to volunteer at a local center.
