Welcome to Algebra 1!

You may feel excited, nervous, or a combination of feelings. One thing I want you to know is that I honor your effort that is given in this class (showing up to class when you are able, participating in class as best you can, being honest when something isn't making full sense to you, etc.). 

This discussion-based math class will teach you algebra 1, logical reasoning, how to collaborate with classmates on complex problems, problem-solving skills, and how to advocate for your own learning.

Class notes will be provided 24 hours before the first class is set to begin. I highly encourage learners to print these notes, or have them accessible digitally where they can annotate.

I can't wait to meet you! Feel free to reach out with any questions.

TEACHING STYLE
My goals are to teach to the students' needs and encourage students while they learn core concepts. I accomplish this through setting high expectations and making sure students feel seen and heard. Mistakes will be made, and that is okay! It is all part of the learning process.
The method of teaching will be a mix of "I do, we do, you do" (which means I will be demonstrating the content first) and giving the students problems to try out on their own first. I often use questions to allow students to think critically without giving the answers away. I love student-to-student interaction and will be incorporating it as much as possible through online discussions.

NOTE: Make-up days are available if the teacher is unable to attend class (this would be due only to an emergency/illness). Make-up dates & times will be communicated through a classroom post and are based on the teacher's availability.
