Basic Elementary Math 1
Room:
305Description:
As stated in my bio, “My vision for teaching math involves building a strong foundation, making learning enjoyable, and seeing the beauty of God’s creation through His marvelous design. With a background in engineering, I also hope to make STEM careers more interesting and accessible for my students.”
In this class, students will learn many important concepts, such as single- and multiple-digit multiplication; solving for an unknown factor; solving abstract and real-world problems involving addition, subtraction, and multiplication; measuring and computing area; adding and subtracting time in hours and minutes; and basic fractions.
Students are expected to complete the weekly homework (workbook and drill sheets) in five installments, each about 30 minutes long. Parents are expected to assist their students, use the answer key to correct finished homework at home, and be responsible for administering weekly tests. During the class, the instructor will go over the mistakes found in the graded tests, teach new concepts, and go through practice problems. Internet and printer access are required to print drill sheets.
If you have any questions, please email me.
