**** This class is being transitioned to an ongoing class where students get a personalized plan, and tutoring help please go to that class here if you are interested in that, it is available by using the link here or by searching for Pre-Algebra Ongoing - https://outschool.com/classes/pre-algebra-ongoing-custom-planmentoringdaily-accountability-7aAIhDdZ#usNkO7ExQL **** Students will have instruction, personalized help, and practice in class to help them get Pre-Algebra to make sense. Students will interact with each other as well as the teacher over the online classroom as well as on the video classes 5 days a week. We will use Khan academy as the curriculum and for homework. This will enable me to focus on teaching and helping where students have trouble spots instead of sending out and grading each students homework(since homework is graded automatically on Khan). This class is meant for students who do not enjoy math, I originally planned this class to take place twice a week so it would be less expensive but found that students that were in this situation didn't do well with a lot of homework(which that type of class plan required). In light of this I have made this class 5 days a week. Class time will be structured as follows: 5 minutes - review 10 minutes - new instruction and practice 10 minutes - more instruction and practice Topics Covered: Week 1: Fundamentals Review - Arithmetic, fractions, decimals, variables, exponents, and order of operations Week 2: Multiples/Factors Week 3: Reading and Interpreting graphs, and tables Week 3: Understanding and translating measurements Week 4: Review and catch-up on any problem areas. Week 5: Word Problem Focus Week 6: Negative Numbers and the coordinate plane Week 7: Review Week 8: Final Assessment
