Lesson 2:
Conversion Aversion
 Learners will learn about the six common metric prefixes and the values they have.  We will review each prefix and converting units from standard units (meter, gram, liter) to those we study (kilo. hecto. deka, deci, centi, milli).

Lesson 3:
Give them an inch, they take a mile.
 The goal is for students to use ratios to change the units in a description (like ounces to pounds or yard to centimeter for instance.).

Lesson 4:
Express Yourself
 In this class learners will solve for a variable in a simple algebraic expression.  For each expression the student will be asked which number is with the variable and what is the opposite of that number in order to move it to the other side of the equal sign.
