Each class session we will review the skills needed to succeed in Discovering Algebra One Parts 1-4. The skills will be taught through a combination of discussion, projects, and worksheets. We will meet 5 times a week for 2 weeks and review the following topics: Integers and absolute value Combining like terms One and two step (one variable) equation solving One and two step (one variable) inequality solving and graphing Exponent and Radical basics Graphing linear equations Students will be expected to do worksheets every week that will help them review the skills learned. At the end of the course there will be an optional written evaluation the student can do, which will be assessed by the teacher. Students should have prior knowledge of the skills above; this is meant to be a review. In addition to the skills above students should also have a grasp of fractions, decimals, percent’s, proportions, and reading tables and graphs. All materials for this course will be provided. If you have any questions do not hesitate to ask!

Teacher expertise and credentials
From August of 2014 till June 2018 I worked as an adjunct math instructor and the program coordinator of the learning lab at Southern WV Community and Technical College. As the program coordinator of the learning labs I saw a lot of student who had been taught to memorize math instead of discover math. My experience not only as a math instructor, but as a radio engineer and data analysts has led me to the belief that math is best learned through skill building, discussion, and discovery.
