Ms. B와 함께 수학 농부가 되어보세요

“Be a Farmer” is a real-life math project where students will complete ten different math-related tasks in this week long class. 
Each time class meets students will have two "tasks".  Prior to class, students can download and print the class packet or bring a paper and pencil to participate in class . Understanding of the below math skills is needed in order to participate. This is a week long math class. I encourage all learners to participate in class, however, they can pass on the equation. My style of teaching is turn table teaching. Each student has a math equation to work through (we discuss our math tools, Ms. B's White board, using our fingers etc). I also encourage every learnrer to support and to be patient in class whitle their class mate works though the math equations. I encourage supporting each other in all of my classes. What we do not complete in class we will complete in the following math class
