Course Information Math 1 Summer Prep is an online live video class to help students prepare for Math 1 in the fall. All students are welcome. Format Students will learn and practice the foundational math skills in an "I do. We do. You do" Model. First, the course will start with a traditional lecture on mathematical topics, with examples and thorough explanations. I teach the concepts using both traditional methods and online visual demonstrations using Desmos. Then, we will complete practice problems together. Finally, students will have the opportunity to continue practicing and complete an exit ticket for understanding. Additional practice opportunities will be provided if students would like to hone their skills outside of class.
Learning Goals
Understand the concept of a function and use function notation. [Focus on linear and exponential (integer domains) and on arithmetic and geometric sequences.]Analyze functions using different representations. [Linear and exponential]
