Multiplications Facts and Drills - Keynote Presentation
This animated presentation is designed to give them the facts and assess their knowledge of them. My own like going through these with me. I hope your kids and students like it as well. The video preview shows you how it begins and what it looks like later in the show.

PEMDAS - From Left to Right
This Keynote Presentation animates the left to right aspects of multiplication/division and addition/subtraction. Hopefully, we can cure the misconception that a lot of kids have about the "m" being before the "d" and the "a" being before the "s."

Convert Fractions and Decimals - Terminating and Repeating
My 7th graders latched on to this activity and did really well with it. I gave them the option of creating the tables in their notebooks or they could glue a paper copy into their notebooks (I took screenshots of the tables and printed so they were the exact same as the presentation. The kids liked that).

Distributive Property - Distribute Negatives
I got some amazing work from my students using this .pdf presentation. Most of them say they get it. I sure hope your students tell you the same thing! I like to assign in Google Classroom or Microsoft Teams, go over the examples and explanation together, then have the kids do the exercises in a notebook or on an iPad.

Experience

Teaching style
I do. We do. You do. Relentless pursuit of positive feedback, and I rarely sit down.
Awards & shining teacher moments
Perhaps I've never stayed in one place long enough for any awards to come my way just yet, and I'd much rather give an award than receive one anyway.
My own education history
I attended four colleges before finally receiving my degree at Northern Arizona University. I have an eight year old son and two adopted little 10-year-old ladies that have taught me more about life than any of my professors ever could.
Additional biographical information
I am obsessively creative and love math, so I combine those and post videos on YouTube frequently. I would love more teacher feedback on my work, so feel free to search Edward R. George and preview/comment on my 7th grade math lessons and 8th grade math lessons. We can get these standards into these kids. We just have to keep pushing.
