 Appropriate for advanced 4^th 

and average 5^th graders

This is the 1^st semester of a year-long course 

  offered virtually through Zoom

              Class begins Wednesday, 

                   September 9, 2020

Saxon 54  includes such concepts as.....                                                                                                                                                                                               .......*place value, *metric system, *word problems, *patterns, and *Roman numerals.. Adding three-digit numbers, subtracting numbers with re-grouping, estimating answers, dividing by two-digit numbers, simplifying fractions, adding and subtracting with decimal numbers are also topics that will be covered in this class.

Each class will begin with a warm-up where students will practice math facts and do some problem solving exercises, all mentally.  This is when times tables are practiced.

Each week, students will be introduced to new concepts and will complete practice problems for up to four lessons. (The goal is to cover four lessons each week.  Some weeks may be less.)  Class time will also be used to answer any questions from the previous week’s homework.

Homework:   Generally, four lessons plus one test will be assigned each week.. Each lesson usually has 25 problems.  Students are to complete a lesson each day, and then the parent is to correct their paper.  Students are to then try to correct the problems they missed. Any problem they still do not understand, I will help them .  The homework for this class should generally take 1 to 1 ½ hours (including correcting mistakes) daily.  Parents will need to order the Answer Key as well as the textbook to use to correct all homework before it is turned in.  Any problems a student misses should be re-done to ensure the student understands the process.
