Upper-level math requires students to apply what they have learned about numbers, their properties and relationships to solve complex problems. This class focuses on reviewing previously learned skills from 6th grade to prepare for 7th grade math success. This class is a discussion-based class. Students will need to be able to contribute to the discussion by having class In a quiet environment, where their camera and microphone can be turned on. Please note that students must have completed 6th-grade math to succeed in this course. The course will be as follows: Meeting 1: Properties of Integers and the Coordinate Plane- and an introduction to integer operations Meeting 2: Understanding and Solving Problems Involving Ratios and Rates Meeting 2: Understanding and Solving Problems Involving Ratios and Rates and extending that to proportional thinking. Meeting 4: Understanding and Solving Problems involving Percentages and writing equations for Percentages All classes will have a heavy emphasis on fraction and decimal use. Students need to have an understanding of those topics prior to enrollment.

I am a non traditional teacher, no lectures here!
Instead my classes focus on being:
*Student Centered- they lead the pace
*Critical Thinking -complex tasks are given that may be a bit unusual but will cause students to think deeply
*Problem Solving- word problems to keep concepts in context
*Focus on discovering patterns- patterns is the basis of the study of algebra and higher levels of math thinking
*Students create their understanding versus being told what to think
I am constantly learning how to become a better math teacher! I have a Master's degree in Math Education but I don't believe that means I know everything. In fact I am constantly reading about the brain, and the best ways to teach math. I also am constantly evaluating my classes and content and making changes based on how learners interact with the material.
I have 13 years of experience in Education, and have taught math at all levels including adults.

In my down time, I love hanging with my husband, and two girls. We love to read books, play games and do math together (of course:)Reviews
