Hi! I’m Rebecca Eden, and I’m happy to be part of the Chequamegon School District community again this year.

I currently serve as a middle school math teacher and am passionate about helping students build confidence and curiosity in math. I earned my degree at UW-Eau Claire and have been teaching for nine years, with five years at Chequamegon Middle School.

I enjoy cheering on my students not only in the classroom but also in their activities outside of school. Outside of school, I love spending time with my family, fishing, reading, baking, and being part of our supportive community.

Course Outline

Students in Math 8 and Math 7 will learn by doing math, solving problems in mathematical and real-world contexts, and constructing arguments using precise language. Students will have the opportunity to collaborate with their classmates, gain experience communicating their ideas both verbally and in writing, and develop skills that will serve them well throughout their lives. In most lessons, students will complete a warm-up, one or more instructional activities, lesson synthesis, cool-down, and practice problems.

Mini-Economy

Students who are interested in expanding their knowledge in the financial world are encouraged to invest their time in Mini-Economy! Through hand-on learning and discovery, students will learn more about saving, investing, credit, debt, risk management, and insurance through a classroom economy based system. The classroom economy helps students learn valuable life skills such as organization, the value of saving, and delayed gratification. 

Life Skills/Careers

This course is divided into two key areas: Life Skills and Career Exploration. In the Life Skills portion, students will develop essential self-management, social, and drug resistance skills to help them navigate everyday situations and make informed decisions. Emphasis is placed on building a growth mindset, confidence, communication, and responsible decision-making. During the Career Exploration segment, students will explore a variety of career clusters and pathways. They will engage in hands-on research and create projects centered on careers that align with their personal interests and strengths. This course is designed to equip students with foundational tools for personal success and future career planning.
