On May 24, 2020, student members of the Greater Princeton Branch of AYLUS (GPA), Kevin Song and Karen Yang, teamed up and taught 5 kids from West Windsor in the subjects of math.
The 3-hour class offered by GPA members starts with an hour of prep for gathering materials around noon. Then at 3:30-5:30 Karen and Kevin teach Pre-Algebra class. The 5 kids, Kathy, Victor, Claire, Meisu, Claire, are in 5th grade, and being taught Pre-Algebra.
After a much-needed break last week, the kids and teachers were back! They had class 2 hours earlier than normal because of the Memorial Day break. Kids were taught online again, beginning with a review of word problems. Then kids did more word problems (similar to the picture) and sent a response via a private chat message feature in Zoom. They then walked through the problem with the kids explaining what they did. Continuing with the same task of translating similar word problems into equations and solving the equation, the kids worked hard and improved their skills! This class, we also covered some material on science as the kids seemed to be interested in this subject. They’ll be having class next week and more details to come!
