Comprehensive 6th Grade Math Course

Join our ongoing 6th-grade math curriculum designed to cover essential topics such as ratios, rates, integers, absolute value, expressions, equations, inequalities, variables, geometry, probability, and statistics. Perfect for homeschoolers, supplemental education, and skill reinforcement!

Course Structure

Each session begins with a thorough discussion to gauge students' understanding of the weekly topics. Our teaching approach follows the "I Do, We Do, You Do" method:

• I Do: Teacher-led examples and explanations.

• We Do: Collaborative problem-solving between teacher and students.

• You Do: Independent problem-solving with personalized support.

Classes incorporate comprehensive instruction, practice exercises, and real-world applications (including word problems). Optional homework and review materials are provided post-session.

Flexible Enrollment

Students can enroll at any time as classes are independent and topics rotate as scheduled.
