If you are interested in participating in this every other week math center based math class for grades K-6, please email adagioacademy@comcast.net.
This is a wonderful opportunity to have your children develop roots in complex match skills which will benefit them greatly down the road. Lyndi does not feel that she has to have the same students each week, so even if you’d like to just try it out now and then, you’d be welcome to join us.
The classes will take place at Heights Community Center , near UNM and CNM, on Thursdays, beginning on November 8th. For more information please email the above address.
Math details:
The children will have the opportunity to participate in various math centers organized by Lyndi Spears who has lots of experience tutoring children of various ages in Math. They will be mostly Montessori based. To help with the cost of materials, there will be a $5 fee per child for the session, which will run through the end of this school year.
She plans to introduce the children to the following concepts, adapting as needed to fit the needs of the children in the classes:
Counting
Recognizing and writing numerals
Simple and dynamic addition
Simple and dynamic subtraction
Simple and dynamic multiplication
Simple and dynamic distributive division
Group division
Fractions - identification and nomenclature (we can do addition and subtraction, multiplication and division too but this is not usually in the curriculum for this age group)
Squares of numbers
Cubes of numbers
Introduction to the binomial cube
Geometric forms: circles; triangles; quadrilaterals; polygons; irregular figures
