Course Description
Let's Make Math Fun Again! This class will help prepare your students to move on to Intermediate Math after their 5th-grade year. We will cover topics such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division facts, fractions, decimals, place value, time, money, and many other fun concepts!
Class instruction will go over the "how's" and "why's" of the lessons, including hands-on activities and games. Students will work on lessons at home, estimating approximately 30 minutes each day. Answer keys will be sent via e-mail, and parents will be required to grade their assignments.
If you have questions about the readiness of your child, please contact the instructor.
