The Teaching Companion for Grade 6 Math
Word-for-Word Scripts for Parents, Tutors, and Teachers
Every lesson scripted, with the wrong turns pre-answered. If you can read aloud and point, you can teach this book.
$11.99
Most parents do not freeze because the math is impossible. They freeze because they do not know what to say next. This book says it for you.
Every lesson is scripted: you say this, they should say that, with the wrong turns pre-answered. Before each unit, a private five-minute primer teaches you the math first.
What's inside
- Word-for-word scripts for every lesson in the Grade 6 workbook
- A private five-minute primer before each unit, written for the adult
- Common wrong answers with a scripted response for each
- What to do when a student stalls, guesses, or shuts down
- Pacing suggestions for homeschool, tutoring, and classroom use
- Designed to be read side by side with the student workbook
Use this level if you see
- You want to help but do not trust your own math
- Explanations turn into frustration for both of you
- You need a plan for the lesson before it starts
- You are tutoring a 6th grader and want consistent language
Who it's for
