Unit 1 Math StudyCast

Happy Monday, everyone! We reviewed concepts in math today. Our very first math test will be TOMORROW, Tuesday, September 11th. I want all of my students to succeed and ace this test, so I recorded a StudyCast to help you review for the test!
What's a StudyCast? A StudyCast is essentially a video podcast that I'll post on my blog to help kids study for an upcoming test. I will post StudyCasts for each Math test, as well as some for science/social studies. I may even record StudyCasts to help students master specific skills right from home. Students can pause, work through the problems, and go back if needed. And review, review, review until they get it! I do require StudyCasts as homework, so please comment so I know your student has completed the review. To leave a comment, just click on the comments below the post.

I hope you'll utilize these StudyCasts! Grab some paper and pencil and work the problems along with me! I upload these videos on YouTube...so you should be able to view them from any computer or any device that allows for youtube (iPod touch, iPad, etc.) Pause the video when needed, and lastly, click the arrows on the right to view the video in fullscreen. Good luck!

**I'd like to see how many students are using this StudyCast, so please leave me a comment below! Thanks!
