六年級數學—解決問題的方法

6th Grade is a critical math year because it introduces beginning algebra concepts of integers, proportions, more complex fractions and introduces solving equalities. This course provides the foundational skills needed to master 6th grade content and provides the framework for success in taking Pre Algebra in 7th grade. 

Please note due to the nature of the course students are required to come to class with cameras on (and they must remain on) and in a quiet location to actively participate. 


Each week will be devoted to 1 concept/skill that will be developed through complex problem solving, discussion, and brain-friendly activities. I don't lecture but instead encourage students to create their own understanding through a series of discussions, critical thinking, and problem-solving tasks. 

 Students should be familiar with the following concepts before taking this class:
operations of whole numbers and decimals, fraction operations of addition, subtraction, and multiplication, order of operations, variable use and solving 1 step equations. 

This course can be used for homeschool use or as a review to strengthen these skills. After each class students will be given an optional homework assignment and written and/or video notes that correlate with the lesson. If students complete and turn in the homework, I will give them individual feedback and keep track of their progress. 

Students enrolled for an entire semester will receive an individual transcript with their strengths and weaknesses at the end of the semester. 

Please note while the content does naturally build, each week covers just one topic so students can enroll for the weeks they need. 

*This course will go at a slower pace, and will work on developing reasoning and critical thinking skills that are essential for upper level mathematics.
