分数をマスターする：練習と楽しみ

In this ongoing class, we will review and practice with fractions in a fun and relaxed environment.

Every week we will begin with a quick 'mental warmup' to get ourselves focused and ready to go. After that, we will bring our attention to a focus topic for the session. This focus topic will cover different ways that we work with fractions. From week to week we will look at topics like:
--Adding and subtracting fractions
--Multiplying and dividing fractions
--Finding a common denominator
--Equivalent fractions
--Simplifying fractions

Upcoming topics:

Week of 5th May: What is a fraction? The meaning of fractions, types of fractions, and the meaning of numerator and denominator
Week of 12th May: Adding and subtracting fractions with common denominators
Week of 19th May: Simplifying Fractions, including Highest Common Multiples
Week of 26th may: Finding Equivalent Fractions

We will cycle through these and related topics on a regular basis so that students have a chance to revisit and practice tricky concepts - this repetition is key to helping children retain what they learn!

After introducing the focus topic with concrete examples (using pictures and real life situations), we will use the concepts again with more abstract problems. Finally, we will end with flashcard games and practice to consolidate what we studied in the session. 

Children are welcome to join the club any time. This club is most suitable for children between the ages of 8-11. 

My teaching style is lively, upbeat, and encouraging. I encourage discussion and active engagement throughout the class, and keep my class sizes capped at five learners in order to allow everyone to participate fully.
