Overview

The goal of this class is to give students confidence that they can succeed at math. Although we work hard, we also have fun and I incorporate games and friendly competition into lessons. Also there is generally chocolate involved.

Teaching and Review of concepts

I explain the lesson and we will talk about it. I will show the students how to work out an example problem on the board. Then I will give them similar problems to work out on their own (each student has an individual wipe board).

Practice 

After each student demonstrates understanding, they will do practice problems. When each student can correctly do the practice problems, I have them do the problems from the lesson.

Standardized test practice

Class ends with standardized testing practice and practice problems and possibly chocolate.
