What is the flipped classroom? This term describes a teaching approach in which students get a first exposure to course content before class through readings or videos, then spend class time deepening their understanding of that content through active learning exercises.
Why the term “flipped”? In the traditional approach to college math and science teaching, students come to class to get a first exposure to the material through lecture, then try to make sense of that material through problem sets and other activities after class. The “flip” involves shifting the first exposure to outside of class and the deeper learning to class time.

In my classroom the scholars will be going into their 7th grade tech class and covering the material on Monday's while I reviewing old content. This helps the scholars in several ways, first it helps them understand the content before they reach my classroom, so the majority of the homework is done within the class. Second the scholar's will have much more time to focus and hone their math skills we are covering. Finally the scholar's can focus on projects, exploring content and working with one another rather than listening to lectures.
