Mrs. Cordaro's Page
Hi and welcome! My name is Mrs. Cordaro, and I am excited to be your teacher this year! I currently teach Intro to Algebra 7, Intro to Algebra 8, Pre - Algebra, Algebra 1 A, Algebra 1 B, and Math 7 Strategies II. I have been teaching since 2010 and have been teaching at Rockwood Area School District since 2012. I have thirteen years of 6th grade math experience and I am thrilled to make the leap to the High School math department!
I believe that all students can learn and productive struggle is something I push in my classroom! Through failure, there is growth and perfection does not exist, but it is great to strive towards! I love how math teaches us how to be critical thinkers and allows us to make connections to the outside world. My goal is to create a space where students feel comfortable sharing their strategies, explaining their failed attempts, and being kind while doing so.
Outside of the classroom I run Rocket Vision, I am co-assistant director of the high school musical, and help coach contestants who are involved in the Maple Queen Contest and the Outstanding Young Women's Competition. I also love music and bring my love of singing and playing guitar into the classroom through a song every Friday to my students.
I look forward to another great year of learning math, discussing our strategies, and building our confidence within the classroom!
