Progress will be evaluated with the learner's work throughout the semester. The teacher may contact the learner's guardians as needed. Guardians are welcome to contact the teacher as needed. Progress will be evaluated with the Singapore Workbook Review pages if requesting a grade. Assigned Singapore Review pages should be completed without assistance from guardians or other people. Calculators may or may not be used, and this will be stated by your teacher when the assessment is assigned.Certificate of Completion
Grades, Scoring: 1) I can assign grades if requested. The student must turn in their tests to receive a grade for the semester. Please let me know at the start of the semester if you are requesting a grade for the semester. 2) I do not grade homework, however, the "Answer Key" contains all answers and work. Students are welcome to ask individual questions. 3) If you are not requesting a grade from me, submitting "Reviews" is not required. However, students should still come to class with questions. If a student is not turning in tests, I will assume that the parent is keeping track of grades and reviewing the tests, and are just interested in the instruction portion of the course. 4) The "Answer Key" contains the recording forms for you to keep track of your student's grades for the fact practice tests. It contains two templates for the students to write all the work needed for lessons. This is optional, but it is a nice format. It has a chart to record grades for lessons and tests. Last, there is an optional page for students to do test answer work.Class Experience
US Grade 5
Learners will complete the Primary 5B book in this 18-week long semester course. This course will have assignments posted once a week. There are no live meetings in a flex class. *Learners must have the required books to take this course. The materials are listed in the "Supply List" section. *The Test Book is required to receive a grade. Monday-Friday: 1) The teacher will post each Monday morning, which will include the week's teaching videos, lessons, and assignments. Please tell the teacher if you would like to complete the semester with faster pacing. The video will include the new lesson material and examples. 2) Learners are expected to participate by replying to each post from the teacher each week. The learner can reply by posting the answers to assigned homework, asking questions, or replying to discussion questions. Learners are not required to submit homework, it is optional to submit homework. Learners are expected to contribute to the teacher's posts and conversations. Participation in this regard is mandatory (to reply to each teacher's post to some degree). 3) Required Curriculum Work: Learners are expected to complete the assigned questions from the textbook and workbook assignments each week. The teacher will not be grading all the workbook exercises, however, learners may post their work if they would like to have the teacher review the work (as a photo or typing it out), and not only just the answers. Learners should remember that the answers are in the "Answer Key". Please let your learner know before class begins if they are allowed to write directly in the textbook or not. Some people prefer to reuse the textbook. If learners will not be writing in the textbook, please ensure they are prepared with paper for class. 4) Beyond the Curriculum Work: Learners should complete the activities each day that go with the completed book lesson completed. 4a) Extra Practice, Intensive Practice, Challenging Word Problems: Optional work will be assigned from these three workbooks to supplement the lesson material. These books are optional and are not required. 4b) ixl.com: One or more lessons will be posted. These are optional activities and not required to complete. The teacher will provide the subscription log-in information. 4c) Online Activity: Learners will be provided with online activities to complete for each lesson. For example, SplashLearn, MathPlayground, or other fun games will be suggested. Learners will take a photo of the activity and post it in the lesson thread as a comment. 4d) Real Life Activity: Some lessons may have discussion questions pertaining to real life. If the learner knows how to associate the lesson material with a real-life topic (such as at a job, or shopping, etc), the learner should discuss this in the lesson post. 5) Message the teacher with homework questions as needed. The learner can send photos of the work or message the page and problem numbers. Extra help sessions for a reduced fee can be scheduled. Class topics can be found in the table of contents on the Singapore Math website. The links to each book are in the "Supply List" below.
