Beginner Level
It's true that practice makes perfect! For math, this is key for developing a strong foundation. In this course, the student will practice skills involving order of operations, integer operations, solving equations (using emoji puzzles) and review graphing ordered pairs to build up to graphing linear equations.
Learning Goals
The student will:
-use order of operations to simplify math expressions
-use simple rules to perform integer operations
-solve emoji puzzles to find missing values in an equation
-use in and out tables to graph linear equations

With 25+ years of teaching under my belt, I understand the importance of students maintaining their math skills. In this course, I will show how skills learned in the younger grades (whole number operations, in and out tables, picture equations) can be used to build up skills for Pre-Algebra and beyond.Reviews
