1 hour per week. Students will be provided with an assignment each week to complete, focusing on the topic that was covered. They will complete this assignment independently so that the feedback provided is reflective of the individual's work. The time spent to complete homework could range from 10 minutes - 30 minutes, depending on the assignment.Assessment
An assessment will be provided with each lesson. Students that submit the assessment will receive a grade for the assignment, as well as feedback on the work, and opportunities to make corrections if needed.Grading

US Grade 5 - 8
Beginner Level
Students will be provided with a mini-tutorial via self-created videos reviewing one skill a week for the Algebra topics listed below. I will provide also provide examples that students can practice throughout the week (answer keys will be provided), and an assessment will be provided weekly to determine mastery of that week's skill. A variety of activities will also be included in the lessons- some examples include using math emoji puzzles to strengthen skills with solving equations, decoder puzzles to review skills with integer operations, and using 24 cards to practice order of operations. Although we will not be meeting live, I will provide students with the notes, examples, activities and directions needed to seamlessly follow through each lesson. Students will be encouraged to take notes as they move through the lessons as this will help them understand the examples and complete the puzzles, and I will respond to any questions that may be posted via Outschool messages. There will be thirteen lessons total, with each lesson being posted on Sundays by 12 noon (Eastern Standard Time) if weekly classes are selected. By the conclusion of this class students should have a better understanding of how to solve algebra-related problems, and how to think critically to solve problems.
Learning Goals
In this course, students will:
-develop problem solving skills in order to solve real-world problems
-develop number sense with integers and rational numbers
-use inverse operations to solve one-step, two-step equations and inequalities
-use a simple formula to create equations for a sequence of numbers
-use rise over run and a simple formula to find the slope of a line
-solve simple equations to find the solution to a system of equations
-expand their knowledge of perfect squares and square roots to simplify expressions
-use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the missing sides of a right triangles
-combine like terms in order to perform operations with polynomials
-use measures of central tendency to describe data sets
-create box plots and stem and leaf plots to display data
-find the probability of simple eventsSyllabus

over 12 WeeksUnit 1: Expressions and Equations
Lesson 1:
Order of Operations and Evaluating Expressions
In this lesson, students will be able to use grouping symbols, exponents, multiplication, division, addition and subtraction in a specific sequence in order to evaluate algebraic expressions. Lesson 2:
Operations with Rational Numbers
In this lesson, students will be able to perform operations (adding, subtracting, multiplication and division) with decimals, fractions and integers. Lesson 3:
Solving Multi-step Equations
In this lesson, students will be able to use inverse operations in order to solve multi-step equations and equations with variables on both sides of the equal sign. Unit 2: Linear Functions
Lesson 4:
Arithmetic Sequences
In this lesson, students will be able to identify arithmetic sequences, and use the formula to find the nth term of a sequence. Other Details

Pre-Requisites
Students should have a basic understanding of adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing integers.
Supply List
Students should have a three-ring binder in order to keep track of assignments and notes each week. I will provide a PDF via Outschool messages that will explain to students what needs to be for the week (objective, discussion question, video, practice and assessment). A calculator and graph paper would be nice items to have, however, when possible, I will suggest websites that may have the tools that a learner may need (example: online calculators).
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
Sources
I will use Quizizz activities to reinforce skills reviewed. The problems will be provided in PDF form and attached to the lesson.

Teacher expertise and credentials
2 Degrees
Doctoral Degree in Education from Capella University
Master's Degree in Education from University of Maryland, Baltimore County
I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics as well as a Master's Degree in Education. With 20 years of experience teaching in the classroom coupled with 9 years of experience teaching online to students with varying abilities and needs, I feel extremely qualified to deliver this instruction to learners via Outschool. My love and dedication for Pre-Algebra and Algebra 1 stems from the knowledge that this is such a critical time for students to make the connections of elementary-level mathematics to higher-level thinking that will be key for success in courses such as Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Geometry or Pre-Calculus (just to name a few).
