Come join this interactive, fun class to brush up on your math skills to help get prepared for seventh grade! Class Content: Each week we will meet to review seventh grade skills. During class we will use a variety of methods and learning styles including hands-on projects, paper assignments, games, visuals, and other activities to help all learners engage and make the most of this class and reinforce skills and help prepare for seventh grade. Why This Class: I have been a brick and mortar teacher for ten years working with all elementary levels. I have seen through experience that summer is a critical time to keep those skills sharp and prevent the summer slide which can set a learner back up to two months in their education. Class Materials: Each week learners will be sent all print outs prior to class. These print outs will include a variety of activities for class. Learners will also need basic supplies available for class. These will include pencils, coloring materials, scissors, and glue. Special Considerations: This class may go over based on group dynamics up to ten minutes but learners are welcome to leave when they need to. Tech usage: During class we may play online games utilizing kahoot. Please ensure you’re student either knows how to split their screen or is fine with pairing up with someone or with me depending on class dynamics. Class Schedule: Day 1: Number of the Day Topic Introduction/Vocabulary Hands on Practice Day 2: Number of the Day Practice Pages (This will be done with some example problems then learners will have an opportunity to work at their own speed. I will be available for help or questions and we'll come back together at the end of the class to do any wrap up questions) (Mot all practice pages will be used each week. Pages not used during class can be used for optional extra practice) Day 3: Number of the Day Topic Wrap Up Practice Pages, Game, or Craft Week 1/Week of 5/28: Ratios/Proportions Unit Rates/Pricing Equations Week 2/Week of 6/3: Comparing Ratios/Rates Proportions Greatest Common Factor Least Common Multiple Week 3/Week of 6/10: Number Systems Fractions, Decimals, Percents -Add -Subtract -Multiply -Divide Converting Decimals, Percentages, and Fractions Week 4/Week of 6/17: Number System Positive and Negative Numbers, Absolute Value Rational Numbers Number Lines, Diagrams Coordinate Planes, Quadrants, Ordered Pairs Week 5/Week of 6/24: Expressions and Equations Exponents Expressions Terms and Variables Graphs, Tables Week 6/Week of 7/1: Expressions and Equations Properties Order of Operations Rational Numbers Inequalities Week 7/Week of 7/8: Statistics and Probability Variables, Data, Questions Values Centers, Spread, Shape Data Distrubutions Week 8/Week of 7/15: Geometry 2D and 3D Shapes Volume and Area Plots, Lines, Graphs **Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division embedded throughout **Story Problems embedded throughout
