This year, Math Class for two of our oldest students started out with combining like terms, solving for variables and setting up and solving proportions. Students have practiced some of these skills using a computer program on MathBits.com called Geo Cashing where you have to find hidden boxes on the web as you solve problems. Not only do you have to solve problems on a given topic, but then you have to solve a complicated math sentence to get the number you need to put in the url address for the next box. There is a great sense of achievement when you reach the next box! These two students have also used worksheets from MathBits, Spectrum Math pages and the computer program IXL. We are currently working on linear equations and how to find the slope, write an equation and interpret an equation to graph a line.
