In this class, students will meet weekly to learn and practice core math concepts for 6th Grade. Please note, since this class meets just once a week, it is intended to supplement additional math instruction. Over the course of the school year, we will cover the common core math standards for 6th Grade, including:

-fractions and mixed numbers
-decimals
-word problems
-variables
-algebraic equations
-probability
-percentage
-ratio
-rate
-proportions
-area
-volume
-circumference

Students will have multiple opportunities to practice these skills. Each class stands alone and does not require prior attendance. In this class, students are not required to mute themselves (unless their background noise is very distracting). I teach via Google Slides and incorporate interactive activities and games into my classes to make math fun.

Please note: The following schedule is subject to slight adjustments at my discretion.
