2-4 hours per week. This year I am piloting online practice with DeltaMath. Paper assignments will be available for those that would rather have that. After the class starts, you will be given a DeltaMath account that you can choose to practice with. I have found that everyone learns in different ways and sometimes we need a mixture of Desmos, DeltaMath and paper assignments to really learn and enjoy the content.Assessment
Assessments will be given at minimum once a unit. If you would like a grade, I am happy to give it to along with a report card. If you would rather a Pass/Fail class, please let me know and I will let you know the individualized criteria. I will also look for informal and individualized ways to assess knowledge.Letter Grade
Assessments will be given by unit. If students would like a grade, they must turn in assessments.Class Experience

⭐ If you miss the class, you can access all lecture recordings from the classroom page within 2-3 hours, so you can always watch the recorded videos. ⭐ If you book the class and decide two weeks ⭐before⭐ the class starts that the time does not work for you, please reach out for a refund. This class is designed to build on Precalculus Semester 1 foundations in order to prepare for college math or Calculus. Students can choose to come to class, listen, participate and they will learn. ⭐⭐ The very best way to learn will be to practice the concepts.⭐⭐ This year I am piloting online practice with DeltaMath.

Students should have a TI -84 Calculator or equivalent (can be online) we will learn to use technology as well as how to solve problems by hand. I am a big fan of the TI-84 CE calculator but there are phone apps that simulate it. If you need help outside of the classroom, I'm happy to answer questions via message, video or if I have time after class I can stay a little longer. Curriculum can be printed out. If you are a textbook lover, I am happy to give you the names of some of my favorites and you can use those to help understand the material. I also have an open source Textbook that the author has given me permission to share in class. I will share that as a resource. I enjoy teaching this class and really hope that you as a student will enjoy learning different concepts, or at the very least have a better understanding of some of the concepts. Please refer to the syllabus for the progression of topics.
