During the 2018 - 2019 school year, students will be using multiple approaches to teaching math in our class. Part of this approach will be traditional. The other part will involve computers in our classroom on a one to one basis with our students. Students will be required to pass assessments on a pace that will cause them to complete 6th grade math by the end of the year.
Levels Assessments- Students must pass assessments based on the nine levels of sixth grade Indiana Standards in order to graduate from 6th grade math. Assessments will be 80% of student grades. Students will be required to demonstrate proof of mastery continuously throughout the year in the form of large and small assessments. We will be exploring new methods and approaches to demonstrate mastery.
Eagle Math- is the core element in our use of technology in math education. This has been developed to directly correlate with Indiana Standards. it is an interactive learning program that works hand in hand with traditional assessments. It will allow students to progress through the nine levels of Indaina standards at their own pace.
My Web Page- My web page is designed as a resource for students. It is a key part of the processes in Eagle Math and will allow students to learn at their own pace. It is divided up into topics based on levels and the new Indiana state standards. The use of links to interactive web pages and instructional videos will provide a new approach to learning.
Responsibility for Learning- a major goal this year will be for students to take more responsibility for their learning and to explore new ways of learning.
Khan Academy- is at the forefront of revolutionizing education. It will be used as a supplement to our levels curriculum. Students will be able to focus on areas of need, and learn simple coding.
