초보자를 위한 곱셈! 동물 테마 코스(FLEX)

In this 6 week flexible class, students will dive deeper into multiplication. Students will learn how to solve multiplication problems using arrays and M&Ms, drawings, number lines as well as a multiplication chart and learn the count by songs and how to solve word problems. Students will walk away from this class with a better understanding of multiplication and enjoy it!  This class does not meet live. You will be sent two videos a week to watch. This will be a video of me teaching the lesson and each video will be a different topic. 

There will also be a short assignment to complete that goes along with what is taught in my video lesson. The short assignment will be completed through Nearpod and will be interactive. I will provide a small multiplication booklet for you to print that we will complete throughout the course. This booklet will provide you space to complete problems that is part of your short assignment. I will be using slides, whiteboard and manipulatives to teach the lessons. Our class theme is all about the zoo and animals. Students will be solving word problems that have to do will real life situations ie- how much do concessions cost? How much water does an animal need a day? How many pounds of food will the elephant eat?
