POSITION SUMMARY
The role of the Arithmetic A & B Subject Expert Teacher (SET) is to ensure the day-to-day exceptional education of students by preparing and facilitating subject specific lesson plans. Subject Expert Teachers implement the established BASIS Curriculum while tailoring specific topics to integrate their knowledge and passion for the subject.
ARITHMETIC A COURSE DESCRIPTION:
SPORK Arithmetic A is the first part of a two-year course focusing on fundamental arithmetic skills and knowledge. Students further practice their number sense, understand place value up to millions and decimal place values up to ten thousandths and learn the concepts of the Greatest Common Factor, the Least Common Multiple, and prime factoring. Students also build their arithmetic foundation by practicing addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of whole numbers, fractions, mixed numbers, and decimal numbers. They apply these skills to solve word problems, which help them develop critical thinking. Students will understand that a part of a whole can be expressed as a fraction, decimal number, or percent, and they will practice conversion between these three representations. Ratios and proportions are introduced, and students apply them to solve simple ratio and rate word problems. The course also introduces students to the U.S. customary and metric systems of units and will do simple conversions within each system. Students will understand basic geometry concepts such as lines, angles, and polygons. They will be able to find the area and perimeter of quadrilaterals and triangles.
ARITHMETIC B COURSE DESCRIPTION:
SPORK Arithmetic B is the second part of the two-year arithmetic course. Students build on the foundation obtained in the Arithmetic A course. They apply prime factoring to find the Greatest Common Factor and the Least Common Multiple. Their arithmetic skills are extended to the domain of negative numbers. Moreover, students will understand the standard order of operations and apply it when performing multiple arithmetic operations in the same problem. To further develop their critical thinking, students advance to two-step word problems, where they combine two arithmetic operations to find the solution. With respect to word problems, students will now solve ratio problems involving totals. Students’ geometry knowledge is also enriched as they focus on finding the perimeter and area of complex figures, constructing line segments using a ruler, and constructing circles using a compass. The most important new concepts introduced are exponential and scientific notation and the basics of solving equations.
