Algebra – Monday AND Wednesday – Full Year – 30 Weeks -Grades 7 – 10

This course will review pre-algebra topics and delve deeper into Algebra.  It is designed to prepare students to be mathematically literate, value the usefulness of mathematics, and form habits which will lead to success in future math courses.

During class students can expect to participate in a warm-up activity, have an opportunity to ask questions on the previous homework assignment, and learn new material while completing guided notes. Students are encouraged to actively participate in class using the chat feature. The “I do, we do, you do” approach is used for the instruction of new material. Completion of problems will gradually shift from the instructor modeling how to complete the problems to the student completing problems on their own.

This course is designed to teach students the necessary skills and habits to build a foundation for success in their high school math endeavors. In addition, students will develop number sense and the habits necessary for math success and gain confidence in their mathematical skills.

No textbook required. Students will be provided with files of the course materials by the instructor.  

Students must have access to a working printer before each class meeting to print guided notes, homework assignments, study guides, and tests. 

Students are expected to participate in class by completing the guided notes, responding to instructor questions, and asking for help when needed. Students are expected to complete homework according to the instructor’s specifications and to the best of their ability. Completed homework must be turned in on time to earn credit. The homework answers and the steps used to find the answer will be provided to students after the time each assignment is due, but before the next class. Students are expected to read and apply instructor feedback on homework, use the provided answers to check their work, and correct errors on their assignments. To LEARN math, one must DO math.

PLEASE NOTE: This class meets twice a week for 60-minutes each meeting.

PLEASE NOTE: When you break down the tuition, which I agree looks immense, the hourly rate a learner is paying is $13.33 per hour without any discounts applied.

NOTE: This class must reach the minimum of five students by August 20th to run. If we do not reach the minimum, parents will be notified via email.
