Curso de currículo completo de matemáticas de séptimo grado

This class will meet from late August to late May!! We will cover a full year of seventh grade math!

I love teaching math and can’t wait to meet your child! Building relationships with my students is very important in my math classroom! I also encourage students to build relationships with each other in our class. I strive to create a classroom where everyone feels welcome and excited to share their problem solving strategies and ideas!! 

Each class will begin with a mini lesson about a new topic. Students will record notes in their math notebook. We will complete a couple examples together and then I will give the students a chance to try some on their own. I will use the chat box, discussion, the interactive whiteboard, google slides, and games throughout the year to engage learners in the new material! Following each live meeting an optional homework assignment will be posted. Students may submit this to me through a message for feedback! I will encourage students to make corrections and resubmit!
