The goal of the initial class for NEW students, Week 1, is simply to introduce and learn the format and interactive program which will be used for this 5 week course.  (For returning students, we will jump right into the first topics listed on the syllabus.)  New 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 this particular class, and then explain how students can use my interactive math program to practice what they learn between scheduled classes. The following 4 weeks are detailed in "Class Experience."  Subsequent courses, usually 4 to 11 weeks in length, are listed and cover the other strands of mathematics: Operations and Algebraic Thinking, Numbers and Base Ten- Whole Numbers and Decimals, Numbers and Base Ten-Fractions, Measurement, Data and Probability, 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.  This course will primarily focus and GEOMETRIC CONCEPTS necessary for 5th graders.
