Class Experience

US Grade 8 - 11
This is part 2 of a 2 part series.  Part two covers the final 20 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 be familiar with 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. These topics will be reviewed in this class giving the student time to thoroughly master each concept.   

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.  I will grade all homework and tests. Students will have an opportunity to correct all assignments and regain half credit for each correction.  Assignments are expected to be submitted in a timely fashion. 

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 test.  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.
