Students will look into sixth grade math topics that students will review or a preview of next academic school year. Classes are designed to help students improve and reinforce their math skills while having fun. Students will be assessed on the first day of class to ensure they are in the appropriate math level. Topics and level of difficulty will be adjusted for each grade level class. The following are the concepts that we will focus on each week (remember, there are 2 classes each week so we will make sure to dive into these topics thoroughly): Week 1: Area and Surface Area Week 2: Introducing Ratios Week 3: Unit Rates and Percentages Week 4:Dividing Fractions Week 5:Decimal Arithmetic Week 6: Expressions and Equations Class format: First, 10 minutes: Warm up for each class students will participate in. Second, 15 minutes: Introduction of new content. There are 6 session topics that build on each other. Please see the schedule above. Final, 5 minutes: Exit Ticket. The exit ticket will be differentiated by a game or problem set.
Learning Goals
Focus Standards
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.6.RP.A.1
Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.6.RP.A.2
