I have 23 years of educational experience teaching in public and private middle/high schools in North Carolina and Puerto Rico, tutoring students in high school mathematics and homeschooling my own four children. While most of my professional experience is in math, some of my materials were created for homeschool groups or my own children so you'll find some variety in my resources. My kids are working on their bilingualism and I spend a lot of time creating games we can use in our Spanish club so I post some of those resources as well!
This multi-day, 21st Century Project was created for upper-middle and lower-high school students with a solid working knowledge of percents and decimals. It incorporates budgeting for housing, car, vacation, food, utilities, savings, entertainment, and miscellaneous items. Students will need internet access to complete this project, preferably during class time as many children have never been exposed to budgeting prior to It's My Life. Additionally, students are asked to write 6 short paragraph

Teaching style
My teaching approach to math is that you need some hands-on activities to keep them interested, some repetition to keep it in their memory, a lot of patience to keep yourself sane, and a lot of energy to keep up with them.
