Z 初等数学: 5～6 歳向け K レベル (継続中)

EARLY ELEMENTARY MATH, K LEVEL      
  ***  Includes two meetings a week.   **  Please see parent guide below

This class is live, and students will have opportunities for verbal responses as individuals and as a group.  We will cover the typical early elementary school math concepts (Year K in the U. S.), and we will rotate through them, covering one topic each week, using varied approaches, which include: math manipulates, illustrations, simple games, educational apps, and video clips.  I also provide a PDF document each week for optional at-home practice.

A typical class is in the following format:
(1) Welcome to class
(2) Introduce the topic using manipulates
(3) A short math song video on the topic (usually one to three minutes long)
(4) Practice using IXL math: Each student gets a turn, and I also have the students practice reading numerals by reading our score.
(5) A game on the topic: I create almost all the games myself, and the students typically enjoy them very much.

The second meeting time each week is similar to the first, but we typically have a different math song and different IXL activities.  The second meeting is designed to strengthen the students' grasp of the topic
