週あたり 2-4 時間. Homework will be assigned weekly and I will monitor students between classes, and even communicate with them through the program itself while they are working. I will designate mid-weekly class check-ins. Generally speaking, homework that is assigned on a Monday, for example, would not be due until the following Monday. However, this can be flexible when circumstances require it. Assignments will be differentiated, and there are always ways to remediate, practice grade level concepts, or move ahead.テスト
The student will be assessed by the completion of their assigned online work. Grading is instantaneous and visible by the teacher, as well as by the parents. Missed problems will be explained instantaneously via the program. I can also monitor student work remotely as they work and offer suggestions in real time. This aspect does not require video conferencing. It is done through my digital math platform, a simply awesome feature. That time would be arranged via email and a determined time to watch the student work could be established. There will be no waiting from class to class to see progress. Misconceptions that may result will provide teacher/student dialog in the next class. Again, the classwork will be differentiated. Students who need more time on a concept will receive it. Those who need challenge can move ahead if desired. I will monitor all aspects of success and struggle and parents will be able to see their student's progress as well. Students will be required to strive for an 80% on each learning target that has been taught and then assigned. This demonstrates a baseline of mastery of the concept for the teacher. If desired, students can move beyond 80% as the questions often become more rigorous. A diagnostic aspect of my program will allow me to see areas of strength and weakness and communicate with parents regarding specific points of need or challenge.評価

This 4th grade math course will benefit students in homeschooling, public, private settings when they partner with me, their math specialist, for learning, weekly support and success! This class is Part B for Numbers and Base Ten for 4th graders. I recommend the completion of Part A before enrolling in this course. However, students needing remediation, on grade level practice, or above grade level challenge will also benefit from the material that is taught in the these small classes. This course, Numbers and Base Ten, Part B, is the second in a of series courses that will eventually cover all 5 strands of mathematics required of elementary students in grade 4. We continue with "Numbers and Base Ten-Whole Numbers and Decimals." This course will help students continue to build their number sense, skill, confidence and computational efficiency for further math study and mastery. This class will also be offered for private tutoring, if the minimum enrollment is not met. Private tutoring fees would apply. This is Math You Can Do by Michael Thurman. What will be Taught Week 1 This first class is an informational Q and A and an experiential opportunity for students to explore the digital platform that will be used in this course. Students will be given their login credentials to explore my interactive math platform and be taught how to use it. Students will then have a week of fun diagnostic activities to help determine their math strengths and needs, monitored by me, in order to provide a differentiated and personal approach for each student. Parents will be able to monitor their student's online progress as well. After this introductory class, there will be seven additional classes offered by "A Creative, Interactive Math Journey...Together, We Can Do This!" (4th Grade, Numbers and Base Ten, Part B).

Computational fluency checks, (computation with all 4 operations) will teacher directed. Followed by: 4. The weekly Topic selected from the Mathematical Strand, "Numbers and Base Ten-Whole Numbers and Decimals, Part B" will be introduced and explored. (This 8 week course is foundational work, preparing the student for mastery and efficiency in computation with all 4 operations; add, subtract, multiply and divide, using whole numbers and decimals.) Teaching Style Teacher discussion with lots of guided practice, along with group discussion, which will include games, video clips and an abundance of interaction and practice on my interactive math website will be utilized. Instruction will be nurturing and supportive. My teaching style is guided by this motto: "Learning takes place over Time. It's all about the Effort!" We will learn to say this together at the beginning and ending of each class. Remember, parents, productive struggle is an important part of learning. It's ok when students do. It's a valuable part of the learning process. Conclusion: 5. Assignments will be given for the upcoming week, which should be completed by the next scheduled class. Class will dismiss after clarification of any points that may be needed.
学習到達目標
The goal of this initial class, Week 1, is simply to introduce and learn the format and interactive program which will be used for an 8 week course. Students will interact, be able to ask questions and gain experience using my interactive program. I will introduce all aspects of my one hour per week class period; fact fluency, computational fluency and the specific targeted skills for a particular class, and then explain how students can use their interactive math program to practice what they learn between scheduled classes. The following 7 weeks are detailed in "Class Experience." Subsequent 8 week courses will eventually cover all 5 strands of mathematics: Operations and Algebraic Thinking, Numbers and Base Ten- Whole Numbers and Decimals, Numbers and Base Ten-Fractions, Measurement and Data, and Geometry. This course can stand alone, provide extra support or be a part of sequential learning, depending on the need or desire. Conceptualization of math topics is always key, producing an outcome of understanding, efficiency and accuracy with computation, using standard algorithms. Mathematical problem-solving strategies will be taught as well.
After fact fluency and computation checks (also key learning goals) are completed, the remainder of the class will focus on the concept outlined for the designated week. Students will develop understanding by working with the teacher. With my oversight and student/teacher dialogue, the student will be prepared to move forward independently for the assigned homework. I will monitor student work over the course of the week to ensure that mastery is taking place. Points of confusion or clarification would be addressed in the next class, if needed.

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! (Conceptual Math producing Efficiency and Accuracy)
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! 😃
