Welcome back to school for the 2020-2021 school year! My name is Valerie Taylor, and I am so excited to be teaching your child fifth grade math, even in these times of uncertainty. We will be teaching a hybrid model, with some face to face students and some virtual students. It will definitely be a learning experience for everyone, ibncluding myself. Please be patient as we navigate these uncharted waters together. Communication is going to be the key to a successful year for everyone involved.
For the fall semester, we will be joined by ULM Resident, Ms. Hemphill as she is finishing up her degree in education. She will be taking over and teaching the class some days during the coming months, and I could not be more excited to have her be an important part of our learning community. We are going to have a great year!
CURRICULUM
We will be using the Eureka Math curriculum focusing on place value through thousandths, operations with whole numbers, fractions, and decimals, coordinate planes, volume, and all things fractions this year. I will be dropping short instructional videos for each lesson in your child's google classroom accounts they may access from home if they need help with their homework.
GOOGLE CLASSROOM
Students will be using Google Classroom daily for assignments in math class. I will be uploading instructional videos, digital problem sets, homework assignments, exit tickets, and assessments for each module along with time limits. Any work that is not completed by the deadline will be given 0's. Also, they may log in to their google classroom from home and I have uploaded videos of each of the tested lessons.
ZEARN REQUIREMENTS: A Zearn Module 1 completion grade will be given at the end of this nine weeks. Your child should be completing 4 Zearn lessons per week. The schedule of due dates are as follows:
