Typical Student:
3rd grade through adult learners who can't remember
math facts, get confused working with 2-digit divisor
problems, add when solving a subtraction story problem,
don't borrow when they should and who have difficulty
with mathematics.
|
|
Students will learn:
- 100 basic addition, subtraction, or multiplication
facts
- 90 basic division facts
- To read and write numbers into the thousands
- To solve addition and subtraction problems involving
4-digit numbers with carrying and borrowing
- To solve multiplication problems involving 3-digit
numbers times 2-digit numbers
- To solve division problems involving dividing
a 5-digit number by a 2-digit number with remainders
- Discrimination between addition, subtraction,
multiplication and division story problems
- To deal with numbers that have one or more than
one zero
- To identify digits belonging to the ones, tens,
hundreds, or thousands columns
|
|
Students will leave each program able to retain facts,
understand place value, solve computational problems,
discriminate between various types of story problems
and accurately translate story problems into numerical
statements.
|

Typical Student:
4th grade through adult learners who are learning,
or had trouble learning, advanced mathematics skills
such as basic fractions.
|
|
Students will learn:
- Add and subtract fractions and mixed numbers with
common denominators
- Multiply fractions, whole numbers and mixed numbers
- Convert some fractions to numbers and numbers
to fractions
- Tell if a fraction is more than, less than, or
equal to one
- Convert mixed numbers to fractions
- Find equivalent fractions
|
|
Students leave Fundamentals of Math - Basic Fractions
with a firm understanding of basic fraction relationships
and operations.
|
| |
Typical Student:
4th grade through adult learners who are learning,
or had trouble learning, advanced mathematics skills
such as fractions, decimals and percents.
|
|
Students will learn:
- Add, subtract, multiply and divide any fraction
and mixed number
- Reduce any improper fractions
- Find the largest in a series of fractions
- Find equivalent fractions
- Add, subtract, multiply and divide any decimal
numbers
- Work back and forth between fractions, decimals
and percents
|
|
Students will leave this program proficient in the
relationships between and operations of fractions,
decimals and percents.
|
| |
Typical Student:
4th grade through adult learners who are learning,
or had trouble learning, advanced mathematics skills
such as ratios and equations.
|
|
Students will learn:
- The procedure for changing any number into any
other number by multiplying
- How each number in a ratio (a pair of fractions)
is related to each other number
|
|
Students will leave this program with a firm understanding
of ratios and basic equations and their application
to story problems.
|
| |
Typical Student:
6th grade through adult learners who have mastered
the concepts of addition, subtraction, multiplication
and division, but lack further knowledge of math and
how the concepts relate to one another.
|
|
Students will learn:
- Whole number operations and relations (multiplication/division
and inverse operations)
- Fractions (operations, mixed numbers, equivalence,
simplifying and common denominators)
- Number families and extensions (whole numbers,
tables, fraction number families)
- Decimals and percents (decimal relationships,
rounding, percents)
- Estimation
- Problem solving (i.e., classification number families,
comparison number families, number family tables,
inverse operations, ratios and proportion and ratio
tables)
- Geometry (perimeter, area, lines and angles, circles
and the coordinate system)
|
|
Students will be proficient at basic math operations
having to do with division, fractions, decimals, percents
and geometry. They will be prepared for a pre-algebra
program. Students will have reasons to feel good about
their ability to do math.
