This is part one of a 2 part series. Part one covers the first 15 lessons. Students will need both parts to receive a full math credit. 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 lesson, 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 class period to keep the topics fresh. Students are encouraged to ask questions and participate in class. Participation includes working problems on the board and helping other students as they work through difficult problems. Topics covered include: A student pack which includes a workbook and test booklet is required for this class.

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.
