It's been three weeks into school and busy! Seems there are just as many "out of work" or "don't have a diploma" adults visiting our Center. All are anxious and all just want to learn the skills and either move on or pass the GED Math Test.
This Fall I am focusing again on small group math instruction within a lab environment. Why you might ask? That is a good question. The answer is two-fold.
First, it is a matter of money. As we all know, money for education keeps getting tighter and tighter. I am trying to be creative in how the Center is being used and hoping that offering individual and groups of instruction will be appealing to many students.
Mostly, though, it is because I have found that there are a large group of individuals who like the group setting. They get direct instruction and then have the time to practice skills on their own.
For math, I have been using worksheets from www.worksheetsdirect.com Its a great site. I included an image below of a sample worksheet.
Are you a student wanting to take the GED test? Perhaps you are a teacher or mentor of a GED student. If so, then this may be the blog for you. I will encourage you and atempt to give you tips on how YOU or your student can successfully pass the GED test. I will also give tips on helping students prepare for the GED test. Please feel free to give me honest feedback on my posts. I have been teaching GED prep for almost 25 years, but I still have alot to learn!
