T4 • Basic Math
The course Basic Math gives students a strong foundation in arithmetic through the study and practice of whole numbers, fractions, decimals, ratios, percents, and measurements. Students continue to practice their arithmetic skills by applying them to finances and mathematics in daily life. Units on statistics, algebra, plane and solid geometry, and trigonometry introduce students to higher mathematics and promote a confidence that they will have success with these branches of mathematics. Word problems and Problem Solving Strategies ensure that students can apply their mathematical skills to real situations, and it encourages them to connect varying types of mathematical knowledge. Speed tests and abundant practice problems help students to work quickly and accurately. Bible verses or inspiring quotations begin each unit in Basic Math.
Each video lesson is about 45 minutes in length and will best fit into a 50minute class period. Five minutes is allowed for you to check homework. You will need to give quizzes and tests personally.
Establish accountability on the part of each student. Let students know you expect them to listen, to learn, and to practice every day.
When a student has been absent, check the Daily Guides for the days he missed to see what homework he needs to make up. He may also need to watch video lessons he missed or be helped by another student or yourself in order to catch up with the rest of the class.
Note: Lessons have been recorded for only 170 days although most school years are longer. The extra days are allowed for the scheduling of field trips or special school events.
1. Checking Equipment. Check equipment each day to make sure it is running properly. Be ready to start on the right lesson.
2. Following the Daily Guides. Check Daily Guides each day to determine specific responsibilities for that day.
3. Checking Homework. Check daily at the beginning of class to see that each student has completed his homework. Although students may not completely understand a problem, they should attempt every problem. Spotcheck this homework quickly (using the Teacher Key) to see whether students are completing homework problems accurately. This check will help you to identify difficulties early. It is not necessary to grade the homework unless the Daily Guides instruct otherwise.
4. Assign activity for Homework Check. Each lesson of the Daily Guides has an activity for students to do while you are checking the homework assignment. Most days they will be required to read the information for the day’s lesson. Reading this information will let students know what is available if needed as a reference later and will help them to be knowledgeable about the lesson taught that day.
5. Giving Quizzes and Tests. You will be giving quizzes, speed tests, and tests / exams as they occur in the lessons. Plan to remain in the classroom during any quiz or test. Grade quizzes in class with students and grade tests after school. The tests, quizzes, and speed tests are all found in Basic Mathematics Quizzes / Tests. Further quizzing and testing information is provided in the Giving / Grading Quizzes and Tests section of this manual.
Introduction
Subject DescriptionResponsibilities of the Classroom Teacher
Basic Math • T5
Quizzes and speed tests are normally given following the homework presentations and brief review. Further quizzing and testing information is provided in the Giving / Grading Quizzes and Tests section of this manual.
4. Review and Lesson. After homework has been discussed, the video teacher reviews important principles and presents new material. Students follow the lesson as they are instructed on the video. It is vital students pay close attention, use their books, and follow the question and answer exchange given on the video. Tell students to answer teacher’s questions in their minds (or aloud) and to follow closely to the answers given by the video students. Paying close attention to this portion of the video lesson will help them to learn and to retain facts and principles they need to know.
5. Practice. Students will be assigned problems to practice in the text. If students are not having difficulty with the work, assign an appropriate number of students to put their work on the chalkboard and present it to the class. Then, fast forward the video to the explanation. If students are having great difficulty with the assigned practice, then they need to closely view the explanations that are given on the video. If you have a particularly good student, you may have him help another student during practice.
6. Homework Assignments. The video teacher gives the homework assignment at the conclusion of each lesson. Students should copy the assignment into their assignment notebook.
The following is a typical class schedule for Basic Math with suggested times for your students to participate.
1. Homework Check. Begin each day with homework check. Walk around the room and check that each student has completed his homework; spotcheck for accuracy. This check should be completed in about five minutes. Assign activity (in the Daily Guides) for students to do while you check homework.
2. Homework Presentation. At the beginning of each video lesson, homework problems are discussed and answered. Video students write their homework problems on the chalkboard and present their work and the answers. Students should compare their work with the answers on video and make any corrections needed. (If students are doing especially well, you may occasionally wish to have them explain the homework themselves and then fastforward the video directly to the lesson. If students are having difficulty, you may need to allow them to see the homework presentation on video first and then briefly explain the problems again themselves before going on to the lesson. Your goal, of course, is for students to really understand—not merely listen to—the video explanations.) At the end of the Homework Presentation each day, students write at the top of their homework the number of correct answers they had for that day.
3. Quizzes and Tests. You will be giving quizzes and tests as they occur in the lessons.
Class Schedule
Speed TestsSpeed tests are given about twice a week. Most of the speed tests provide practice with the four processes—addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. The tests are timed, and the time to allow is given on each speed test. Speed tests challenge students to work quickly and accurately. Encourage
students who cannot finish within the time given to practice at home. Students who can finish on time and with a high percentage of accuracy will be able to better word the problems assigned from the text. You will give and grade speed tests.
T6 • Basic Math
1. Remove speed tests and speed test cover sheets from Basic Mathematics Quizzes / Tests. Separate by cover sheets and staple packet together. (There are four packets, one for each nineweeks grading period.)
2. Distribute the first packet of stapled speed tests to each student.
3. Instruct students to write their name on the cover sheet the first time a packet is given to them. They write their name and the date in the spaces provided on the speed test for that day and then put their pencils down until you tell them to begin.
4. Tell students the time allowed, and then tell them to begin.
5. When the time is up, tell students to stop. Have students exchange papers for grading.
6. Call out answers to the speed test. Tell students how much to count off for each
wrong answer. (The Basic Mathematics Teacher Quiz / Test Key has the suggested number of points to count off.) Students should write the grade in the space provided. The grader should write his name as grader at the bottom of the speed test.
7. Have students return graded speed tests to the owners.
8. Have students record their score on the cover sheet by placing their score on the line beside the speed test number. The speed test should take approximately 5 minutes.
9. Collect speed tests, check them, and keep them for future use.
10. At the end of the nine weeks, average scores on the cover sheet, and record the average as two quiz grades.
1. Students clear their desks and take out one clean sheet of paper, a pen, and a pencil. Students should take quizzes in pencil and grade them in pen.
2. Distribute quizzes. (The quizzes are located in the Basic Mathematics Quizzes / Tests.) Students write their name and date at the top of the quiz.
3. Students use the sheet of paper as a cover sheet.
4. When students have finished taking the quiz, have them put their pencil away (off their desks) and grade in pen. Students exchange papers for grading. Tell them to sign the paper they will be grading.
5. Give instructions for grading—how many points to take off for each wrong answer and how to mark the quiz. (Having students grade quizzes in a uniform matter saves time when going through them later.)
6. Give the correct answers. (The answers and suggested point values are in the Basic Mathematics Teacher Quiz / Test Key.)
7. Have students figure the final grade by subtracting from 100 the number of points missed. This grade should be written in the space provided.
8. If a student has a question about the paper he is grading, have him place a question mark both by the number in question and by the grade at the top.
9. Instruct students to return papers to their owners, who will check them briefly and pass them to the front. The quiz should take approximately 10 minutes.
10. Go through quizzes later, checking them for question marks, adjusting scores (if necessary), and writing the grade in red at the top. Record grades in grade book.

1. Students clear their desks of everything except two clean sheets of paper (one for a cover sheet and one for a check sheet) and two pencils.
2. Distribute test papers from Basic Mathematics Quizzes / Tests.
3. Explain any special directions for the test. Also tell students what they are to do when they finish the test (where to turn in their tests, what to study, etc.).
4. Students take the test in pencil, writing answers directly on the test paper. They should keep their answers covered at all times using a blank sheet of paper.
5. After students finish the test, they use a check sheet to rewrite problems and check
1. Students clear their desks of everything except a pen. Distribute graded tests.
2. To go over test, ask if a student in the class has all of the answers in the first section correct. Choose such a student to read answers in that section. Continue this procedure until all of the answers on the test have been given. Answer any questions a student may have about a particular test question. Have someone work a problem on the chalkboard if needed.
their answers. Some problems can be checked by rereading the question and checking the answer for accuracy.
6. Always watch students until all tests and check sheets have been turned in.
7. Check to be sure you have collected all tests. Grade these tests yourself. The answers and suggested point values are located in the Basic Mathematics Teacher Quiz / Test Key. It is best not to record grades until after you have gone over the test in class.
8. Have all tests graded and ready to return to students by the next class.
3. Watch students carefully while you are going over a test. They should not have any pencils out while they have tests.
4. Tell students if they find a question that has been graded incorrectly, they should write (in pen) the number of the incorrectly graded question with a question mark at the top of the first page.
5. Collect tests, check any question marks, and record grades.
Procedure for Giving / Grading Tests
Procedure for Going over Graded Tests
T8 • Basic Math
Grades are averaged at the end of each nineweeks period. Record grades of the threeweeks test and the sixweeks test in red ink and record quizzes in blue or black ink. At the end of the nine weeks, follow this procedure.
1. Average speed test grades from student score sheets. Count speed test average as two quiz grades.
2. Average quiz grades including the average obtained from the speed tests. This average is called the daily average and counts as one third of the nineweeks grade.
3. Average test grades for the quarter, except for the final test of the quarter. This average counts as one third of the nineweeks grade.
4. Count cumulative NineWeeks or Semester or Final Exam as one third of the nineweeks grade. To compute a nineweeks grade:
Example: Quiz average: 96 Test average: 94 Cumulative test: + 92
282 ÷ 3 = 94% (nineweeks grade) 5. Figure a semester average by averaging the first nineweeks grade with the second nine
weeks grade. (The semester exam counts as the nineweeks test for the second nineweeks period.) To compute a semester grade:
Example: First nineweeks average: 94 Second nineweeks average: + 86
180 ÷ 2 = 90% (semester grade)

It is IMPORTANT . . .
to train the student to respond along with the video class as they review, have class drill, and respond to class questions. This is most effective in student mastery of the subject content and emphasizes what the teacher considers important. Daily learning is reinforced here.
Student test scores will usually reflect this mental participation—either for good or for bad.
The classroom video teacher from time to time may mention things to enhance the class that your students may or may not be able to participate in. The video manual will not necessarily mention such activities.
