A little about me… -I graduated from the University of Illinois with a Bachelors degree in Mathematics and a minor in Secondary Education.
-Thisis my fifth year teaching. I taught high school for
2 years in Southern IL.
-I’m currently getting my Masters through Rockford
University.
-I am the sponsor of Math Team, Tech Club, and will be
coaching girls soccer in the spring. What will your child learn this year in CCSS 7? CCSS7 Unit 1: Ratios & Proportional Relationships • Focus of this unit: – To apply concepts of ratio and unit rate to fluently compute unit rates, represent proportional relationships between quantities, and compare & contrast proportional relationships in real world contexts. – To solve problems involving such real world contexts as percent of increase/decrease, scale drawing, tip, discount, etc. CCSS7 Unit 2: The Number System • Focus of this unit: – To add, subtract, multiply, and divide rational numbers fluently as well as solve real-world and mathematical problems. CCSS7 Unit 3: Expressions & Equations • Focus of this unit: – To use their understanding of structure to rewrite general linear expressions in equivalent forms. – To apply their understanding of properties when adding, subtracting, factoring, and expanding expressions with and without context. – To read, write, interpret, and solve multi-step real world and mathematical problems using algebraic and numerical expressions, equations, and inequalities. CCSS7 Unit 4: Geometry • Focus of this unit: – To reason about relationships among 2D figures using scale and informal geometric constructions, & gain familiarity with the relationships between angles formed by intersecting lines. – To relate 3D figures to 2D figures by examining cross sections. – To solve real-world and mathematical problems involving area, surface area, and volume. CCSS7 Unit 5: Statistics & Probability • Focus of this unit: – To examine how selected data can be used to draw conclusions, make predictions, and compare populations. – To develop a general understanding of the likelihood of events occurring. – To develop probability models used to find the probability of simple and compound events. – To determine from each sample space the probability of different possible outcomes. What can you do to help your child at home? • Help when they are absent • Guidance to get homework done • Access to Internet for the online book, class webpage, and Google classroom • Permission for Activity Bus • Sign up for the Remind App • Tutor List is on Hawthorn Website What can I offer your child? My goals… • To challenge your child • To promote reasoning behind mathematics (the “why” behind it!) • To help give a better understanding • To help improve your child’s attitude/ opinion about math What can 6 Blue offer your child? • Self Advocacy • Smooth Transitioning • Understanding • A push toward Independence • Belonging Online Textbook & ALEKS • Extra Practice • Individualized • Tutor Videos Program • Self Quizzes • Check topics & • E-book mastery of “pi chart” • Re-assessment Communication Classroom Website: MsSegobiano.weebly.com
