¡Piense en “barras de caramelo” al dividir en matemáticas de cuarto y quinto grado!
La división puede ser difícil, pero no con el método "Candy Bar" que llevará a los estudiantes hacia la eficiencia, la precisión y la diversión cuando aborden la división en matemáticas de quinto grado utilizando este método paso a paso.

1 hora por semana. Homework will not be assigned, but the student will be encouraged to create and solve their own division problems using the concepts covered in this class. Math takes practice, and the more a student practices, the more confident a student becomes!Evaluación
No formal assessment will be given, but a concluding problem will be given for students to solve to demonstrate a level of mastery.Experiencia de clase

A division algorithm known as "Partial Quotients," a.k.a the "Candy Bar Method" so named by me, will be presented that will draw on a student's understanding of mulitplication by powers of 10, a simple concept all students can quickly understand. It will be reviewed in this class. This concept, along with mulitplication fact fluency, will propel the student towards understanding, effiency and accuracy with division using a standard algorithm for long division. Teaching will be accomplished using a storytime, followed by demonstration and group guided practice. The storytime, which will begin the math class after our meet and greet, is about me as a young boy and my sister eating candy bars. The story will connect the students with the concept that will be taught and practiced. Students will interact with me through questions, guided practice and group participation. The only requirement for this class will be mulitplication fact fluency. If time permits, a video clip on the topic will be shared and can be used for later reference.
Metas de aprendizaje
The goal of this class is to foster computational competency with an algorithm for division which will facilitate understanding, efficiency and accuracy when dividing using a standard algorithm.

Hi, there! My name is Mr. Thurman and I enjoy teaching math. And, at “Math You Can Do” we’re always cooking up some good “recipes” for a tasty math experience! I was a public and private school educator for 36 years, and have experience teaching 3rd through 6th grade math. I was a principal for 5 years too, but I must say, it is much more fun and rewarding to teach. I have undergraduate degrees in music and in elementary education from Western Kentucky University. As well, I have a master's degree in Educational Leadership from the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, and a theology degree from Bethany Global University. I am offering math classes for 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th graders because, for the last 20 years of my career, I have been doing just that, working as a math specialist for intermediate students. We will be using a fun math program which allows me to teach you, and then monitor your work when we're not in class together, enabling me to see just where I can best help you until we meet again. I can even communicate with you while you are working between our online classes. And yes, you can and WILL excel in math!! You might even learn to love it!

If you had asked me when I was your age, students, if I wanted to be a math teacher when I grew up, I would have said, "NO!" I had to work hard at math when I was young, and, to be quite honest, I don't think some of my teachers really knew how best to teach the subject. Here's the big idea I share with my students: LEARNING TAKES PLACE OVER TIME! It can't be rushed...especially with math. Our class motto will be," Learning takes place over time AND it's all about the effort!"
My wife is a music teacher and we have 3 grown daughters. We played music together as a family for many years and performed 45 concerts in 5 countries in Europe. Now, we have 9 grandchildren, 4 boys and 5 girls. I have been a professional musician for many years now and play french horn in Orchestra Kentucky of Bowling Green and we perform lots of concerts. We have a little Yorkie named Sir James Paul McCartney Thurman. We call him Paul and I don't think he knows he's a dog! 😃Reseñas
