Grade 5 Math Skills is an extra math class designed to assist students who may struggle in mathematics. The purpose of this class is to develop better basic math skills using a center-based approach, while attempting to make math more enjoyable for the student, as well as build confidence in one’s ability to help the student perform better in the regular math class setting. Our skill and center-based approach attempts to close the gap between where the student is currently, and where the student needs to be, to have the opportunity to be successful with the Common Core Curriculum Standards and standardized testing each year. By monitoring each student’s improvement in the form of a short assessment, every 2-3 weeks, the curriculum can adapt accordingly. Each student has their own unique set of math skill developmental needs, making the math skills class an ever-evolving curriculum. Several strategies could be used to help students gain a better understanding of how to solve problems.
