Modeling Math is the Key to Students Learning Math
I teach 7th grade remedial and general math. I work students at risk of not passing, and I work very hard to break down math concepts. I believe it is so important to find a way to make each student understand a concept. I do not teach "just one way", but find the method that turns my students'lightbulb on. Before this position I taught middle school math to students with learning disabilities at the same school. A new principal after watching me teach, moved all my 7th grade students and had me take over the regular math position working with all struggling students.
I utilize teacher modeling first,slowly with detailed steps,then use guided learning so the student participates, until they can do the concept independently. If the student does not understand the concept I will approach it using a different method. I want all students to feel successful at math.
