If you would like the tests graded I can send them back and assign grades at the end of the class.

Class Experience

US Grade 6 - 9
This class will cover the first 60 lessons of Saxon Math 87 2nd edition textbook or a 1/2 credit of a PreAlgebra course. I work through lessons 4 and 3 teaching as I go. The student is to work the two lessons with me and then complete lessons 2 and 1 on their own. The following week I work through Lessons 8 and 7, teaching as I go and the student works the problems with me and then completes lessons 6 and 5 on their own as review. This continues up to lesson 60. This allows the student to learn all concepts with me and work through 2 lessons with me. Then to review the student will complete 2 lessons on their own.

Learning Goals

The learning goal here is to complete the first 1/2 of Math 87 and prepare the student for second 1/2 of Math 87.
There is no memorization required and all students will fill out a reference card with formulas and tips to help solve problems on lessons and tests they complete on their own.  A calculator is not allowed in this class.
