In this one time class, learners will be taught division from my newest story creation, the Divisional (Not so intelligent) Thieves. Teaching this subject for the past 5 years, I have come across many students who are completely confused about the process of division. I am here to help students understand one of the hardest concepts to grasp for elementary students in a fun and unique way. The worst part about division is that teachers always want the students to explain their answers and ask what the remainder means. The problem with this, our teachers were never really taught what it means so we are just in an endless loop of not knowing why we do the things we do in math. The time to change that is now! 5 minutes- Get to know the students, where they are from, and share any struggles they may have with the concept. 15-25 minutes- Learners will follow along as the teacher breaks down division with a story that allows students to grasp the concepts of division in a unique way. We will also find out what the remainder is and how to properly write down the remainder. It is not just r7... it is much more. 10 minutes- Learners will practice the methods step by step with direct feedback from the teacher. 10 minutes- Class wrap up/Share any other struggles learners may have

Parents and Students!
I teach math and science as core learning classes. I feel that I give great strategies, mostly through crafted story telling. This not only allows students to relate to the material but also gives us a pretty good laugh! And if we know anything, we always remember what makes us laugh! I am certified in Connecticut K-6 and Florida K-6. I achieved my Masters Degree at the best school for teachers in CT, Southern CT State University.
I was never a fan of education or the public school system for as long as I can remember. They always say the right things but never seem to really want children to be their own thinkers. Too many times the only reasons children know anything is due to them being told what to do and what to think. I value children's minds and what they are truly capable of. Children can literally understand anything as long as you let them discover it. The moment you shut them down is the moment their creativity and imagination are halted. My mission is to help develop children's minds and allow them to think and solve problems in anyway they see fit. True education is through creativity.
I would love to teach more about how the brain works for children to lower stress. Mindfulness is a topic I have been following for at least 6 years now. I have noticed a trend in the public school system with administration teams being "corporate" mindfulness. They really only scratch the surface of how to effectively utilize the brain to their advantage and as long as they are mentioning those keywords they think they are up to date. The truth is they don't want to really touch on the subject because they don't understand what it truly is. I like to explore deeper in the understandings and what we can accomplish when we really use mindfulness.
Hope to see you all in class!Reviews
