Pre-Requisites: Students taking this class should have already taken a pre-algebra class and/or have mastered concepts such as how to add, subtract, multiply and divide using negative numbers, how to add, subtract, multiply and divide fractions, how to solve equations with fractions and decimals. Multiplication facts should be mastered up the the 12 facts. Students will learn from instruction on the whiteboard and through working example problems. Class time will be used to go over homework from the previous day, answer any questions and cover the day's lesson. Students will have time at the end of the class to work problems and ask any additional questions. Review will be covered each day to keep the topics fresh. Students are encouraged ask questions and participate in class. There are 2 grading options for this class: Option 1: Students will not submit assignments and will not receive a grade. This option is perfect for those just looking for additional support and wishing to grade their own papers or skip HW and test altogether. Option 2: I will grade Classwork/Homework and tests. Students will submit all assignments to Google Classroom. Assignments must be submitted in a pdf. Assigments submitted to Outschool will not be graded. Late Assignments will not be graded. Assignments not submitted in pdf form will not be graded. Topics covered include: Week 1 Lesson 1: Commutative and Associative Properties Lesson 2: Order of Operations Week 2 Lesson 3: Solving for an Unknown with One Variable Lesson 4 : Distributive Property Week 3 Lesson 5: Cartesian Coordinates Lesson 6: Graphing a Line Week 4 Lesson 7: Slope-Intercept Formula Lesson 8: Graphing a Line (cont.) Week 5 Day 9 Lesson 9: Graphing Parallel Lines and the Equation of a Line Lesson 10: Graphing Perpendicular Lines Week 6 Lesson 11: Finding the Slope-Intercept Formula with Different Givens Lesson 12: Graphing Inequalities Week 7 Lesson 13: Solving Simultaneous Equations by Graphing Lesson 14 : Solving Simultaneous Equations by Substitution Lesson 15: Solving Simultaneous Equations by Elimination Week 8 Lesson 16: Coin Problems Lesson 17: Consecutive Integers Week 9 Lesson 18: Multiplication and Division with Exponents Lesson 19: Negative Exponents and Raising Exponents to a Power Week 10 Lesson 20: Addition and Multiplication of Polynomials Lesson 21: Factor Polynomials Week 11 Lesson 22: Factor Trinomials with Coefficients Lesson 23: Factor Trinomials with Negative Numbers Week 12 Lesson 24: Square Roots and Dividing Polynomials Lesson 25: Difference of Two Squares and Oriental Squares Week 13 Lesson 26: Repeated Factoring of Polynomials Lesson 27: Solving Equations with Factoring Unit Multipliers Week 14 Lesson 28: Unit Multiplier Lesson 29: Square Unit Multipliers Week 15 Lesson 30: Metric Conversions Lesson 31: Fractional Exponents Week 16 Lesson 32: Significant Digits and Scientific Notation Lesson 33: Bases Other Than Ten Week 17 Lesson 34: Graphing a Circle and an Ellipse Lesson 35: Graphing a Parabola and a Hyperbola Disclaimer: This course has no affiliation with Demme Learning or Math-U-See
