What are the educational requirements for middle school math teachers?
You can just give me a brief answer. But PLEASE include ***WHERE YOU GOT IT FROM***!!!

And if it matters, educational requirements for middle school math teachers in New York!

Thanks

You would need an earned credential after your bachelors. NCLB requires you to major in your subject, so you would need a bachelors in mathematics. New York requires their teachers to get a masters degree within 5 years.

The number of mice in Pedro’s barn is inversely proportional. When there are 48 mice in his barn, he owns 5 cats. He increases the number of cats he owns to 8. How many mice are in the barn when Pedro owns 8 cats? Use an equation Pedro can use to find any number of mice, m, when he owns any number of cats, c.

Yaya is wrong. Even though my initial approach was like hers it is not logical as increasing cats should decrease the mice and the question states it is inversely proportional.

When i see these problem first i go with my intuition

lets analyze the problem here

48 mice and 5 cats.

The number of mice is inversely proportional to the number of cats. That means more the mice less the cats.

In this question the number of cats are increased. So the number of mice will be decrease.

48 mice ∝ 1 / 5 cats

Now let k be a constant

48 mice = 1/5 cats

5*48 = 240 = k

The constant is k.

Now remember

x mice ∝ 1/ 8 cats

Now using constant value

x mice = 240*1/8
x mice = 30

So when there are 8 cats he has 30 mice.

When he had 48 mice he had 5 cats.

So your equation can be

240* 1/ Number of Cats = Number of mice.

Only thing i can’t explain to you in this problem is the proportionality. I read this a long time ago in a algebra book. I haven’t learned it in school. So i am sorry. But the answer is 30 mice for 8 cats and the constant k = 240.

Equation = 240/Number of cats = Number of mice!

Hope that helps! Good luck!

My mom teaches middle school students, and her and the other teachers are thinking about how to reward the students. This will include 6th, 7th, and 8th graders. They’re going to do a reward a day. So far they have dodgeball tournaments and karaoke. The teachers are having a hard time thinking of some more rewards. Any suggestions?

A big party? After I finished CST in 6th grade, the teacher threw a party for us. Though in your case, it’s gonna be a little difficult as it includes all three grades.
Or a dance. That’s the best option if it’s all three grades.

Hope that helps ;P

My middle school math class had to choose careers that we might be interested in doing sometime in our lives. I chose physical therapist. If you can help me, I just need to ask a few questions about your job. Thanks.

Fire away.

Teaching credentials are given by the state and states have different requirements for them. What state do you live in? If you live in California you major in math and during your 5th year you take education classes and student teach. Some states allow you to get a teaching credential with just 4 years of college, but 5 years is more common in the big states.

I’m looking for a math competition coach in the general vicinity of Sammamish, WA. The competition my team is preparing for Washington State Math Championship and the coach we had before had to drop out as his work was interfering. If you know of a math coach or are a math coach and willing to coach our team, please answer below and include your email.

I dont know anyone, but I live right in Sammamish too, and the funny thing is that I also am looking for a math coach for WA State Olympiad. Last year my team won, so good luck!

Is there standards? requirements? particularly in Canada? What do you remember from art class in middle school? what do you think should be taught?

There should be standards. In the US, we have national visual arts standards. which feed into our state standards, which feed into our district’s standards. In middle school, you should get as varied an experience in media as your system can afford, and you should be learning how the elements of art and the principles of design work in harmony to create good art.

How many grades are there in the middle schools in mississippi? How many are there in elementary schools and high schools in mississippi? Please help, I’m new to mississippi and is confused with the new place.

I grew up on the coast and when I went to school elementary was k-6, middle was 7th & 8th, high school was 9th -12th.

Just curious; since there are a whole bunch of married high school and college teachers sleeping with their much younger students. I’m just wondering; has anyone ever heard of married middle-aged (40s-50s) male elementary school teachers who are re-acquainted with female former students of theirs (in their late teens or in their 20s) and cheat on their wives with them?

I think that happened in central florida (I live in metro orlando) a few years ago…a HS gym teacher (may have even been a football coach but i can’t remember) was having sex with a cheerleader or dance team member and then when she graduated they kept meeting, and he was married…the girls mom found out and well you know the rest of the story…jail time for him nailing her when she was a teen…a HS student i mean…under 18. I saw a picture of the girl, she was a knockout, i can see why he was attracted to her, but well you just can’t go there until they are 18…

Oh you said elementary teacher…no have never heard of that

My friends and I want to start a football league with all the middle schools in our community. Is it possible that if we have enough people to sign the petition then we will be able to have a football league?
I live in Virginia

I don’t know why not. Where do you live?

Even Jr. high football makes money in the south.
