In this nine-week 5th-grade math flexible schedule course, students will learn fifth grade math skills as outlined by the Common Core Standards. We will cover how to plot points on a coordinate grid, using the order of operations (PEMDAS) to solve equations, long division, multi-digit multiplication, operations with decimals, and elapsed time with both 12-hour and 24-hour clocks. This course will get your child ready to master these fifth-grade-level concepts. 


What Can I Expect From This Class?
Each week, students will get access to a comprehensive instructional video where they learn each concept, and will then practice applying their new math skills through high-quality printable worksheets and interactive math tools such as Nearpod. The teacher is available for answering questions, will provide clarification videos when needed, and will correct homework when students complete and post their work. 


How is the Class Structured? 
⭐Students will begin each lesson by watching the pre-recorded mini-lesson. This will allow them to enter each week with the background knowledge needed to meet the objectives. 
⭐Students will then complete a Nearpod lesson, interacting with other students on the collaboration board, participating in the Nearpod games, and completing math vocabulary practice within the lesson. 
⭐Students may complete a homework assignment related to the week's lesson. They will be welcome to turn their homework in so that the teacher can provide personalized feedback and guidance. 
⭐Each week, they will engage in a conversation with other members of the group on the classroom board about how the week's content can be applied to a real-life situation. 

Boom Cards and other interactive games will also be used throughout the course as a fun way to check for understanding.
