In this ongoing course, students will learn various 4th grade math concepts. Although I teach the concepts in a progressive order, these classes will not build upon each other, so your student can join in at any time! I love to teach math concepts using fun hands on activities, games, and even food! For each lesson, I will teach a skill, students will do an activity/practice the skills with the class, then the students will have an opportunity to do individual practice. Providing positive reinforcement is very important to me while I am teaching my classes! I want students to feel successful and be able to practice skills in a positive and fun environment! I will give your learner specific and positive feedback so that they can fix mistakes if needed and celebrate their successes! Here is a list of concepts that will be taught each week: (I will update this as more weeks are added!)

Parental Guidance
I love incorporating the website Nearpod in my classes. Nearpod is a presentation tool that allows the students to interact with my presentation. Learners are able to do activities such as matching pairs, fill in the blanks, collaboration boards, quizzes, and even games. Learners do not need an account or login to use this resource. To access this resource learners can either bring a separate device to class or they can open a new tab in their browser.
Supply List
Various school supplies will be needed for our lessons such as: crayons, colored pencils, scissors, paper, rulers, and a pencil. I will post a message in the classroom with which supplies will be needed for each week. I will also upload attachments in the classroom for any activities or papers that need to be printed.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello there! My name is Miss Samantha and I can't wait to be your child's Outschool teacher! I have a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education and I hold an Arizona K-8 Teaching Certificate. I have 8 years of teaching experience and I have been teaching online for the last 3 years! I have experience teaching students between the ages of 7 and 13 in all core subjects as well as English as a Second Language. I also have experience with small group instruction and tutoring. My passion lies with teaching math, science, and baking. I love making math enjoyable and approachable for students! While teaching, it is very important to me to appeal to all different Lerners and guide them in a way that will help them on their journey to being successful mathematicians! In my free time I love to cook, bake, and do woodworking projects with my husband! I have a 4 year old son and I am a dog mom to 2 sweet dogs named Blitz and Gracie. I am very excited to share my knowledge with the Outschool community! See you in class!
