2-4 hours per week. Learners are expected to complete weekly homework assignments and submit them by providing a photo, scan, or PDF. Regular practice and submission of assignments are essential for reinforcing learning and tracking progress in the class.Assessment
The class assessment in this course ensures that learners grasp the concepts and skills taught. Assessments include a variety of methods such as quizzes, tests, and assignments. By evaluating their performance, learners can gauge their understanding and identify areas that need further improvement. These assessments provide valuable feedback and contribute to a comprehensive learning experience.Class Experience
US Grade 3 - 6
Embark on a mathematical journey filled with pre-algebra and geometry as you dive into the fascinating world of numbers and shapes. Discover the secrets of integers, fractions, equations, angles, polygons, circles, and more. My flexible classes offer video lessons, engaging worksheets, and additional resources, including the remarkable Khan Academy. Unleash your problem-solving prowess and join us on this exhilarating learning adventure. Communication is key, and I'm here to guide you every step of the way. Let's unlock the power of math together! Students will learn pre-algebra and geometry. Each week, learners will receive video lessons, as the flexible classes do not meet live. Worksheets are provided for mandatory homework. Additional resources include PDF guides and links to Khan Academy for extra practice. Khan Academy offers videos and quizzes to aid understanding. Communication on Khan Academy is not required. Learners must watch video lessons and complete weekly homework. The course covers various pre-algebra and geometry topics. Communication is encouraged via messaging for support. All resources are included without extra charges. This class is excellent for learners seeking to enhance their skills in pre-algebra and geometry, as well as for those preparing for high school geometry.

Syllabus
16 Lessons
over 16 WeeksLesson 1:
Integers & Fractions
Students learn addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division with integers and fractions. Lesson 2:
Order of Operations & Evaluating Expressions (PEMDAS)
Students apply PEMDAS to evaluate expressions and solve equations. 12 mins of video lessons
Lesson 3:
Algebraic Expressions (Simplifying and combining terms) & Distributive Property
Students simplify algebraic expressions and apply the distributive property. 8 mins of video lessons
Lesson 4:
Inverse Operations & One-Step Equations
Inverse operations and one-step equations are basic algebraic concepts. Inverse operations undo each other's effects, such as addition and subtraction, or multiplication and division. One-step equations involve just one operation to isolate the variable and find its value. Mastering these concepts is essential for solving equations efficiently and understanding algebraic principles. Other Details
Parental Guidance
While Khan Academy is an optional resource for additional practice, it's important to note that all communication regarding the class should take place exclusively on the Outschool platform. Learners can utilize Khan Academy for independent practice, but any questions, discussions, or interactions related to the class should be conducted within the designated communication channels provided by Outschool.
