Students who are already taking High School Precalculus can enroll for additional support and practice. Homeschooled students can enroll for a complete High School Precalculus course. 

The weekly schedule will include the following:
Monday: Lesson with video exposure and instruction of the concept will be posted. Students will be given an assignment to complete by Thursday.
Tuesday & Wednesday: Students will work on their assignment on their own. They can message me for additional assistance during this time.
Friday: Optional resources will be provided to students who request extra practice with the concept. Students will be provided with individual feedback on their homework and assignments and can request a meeting to go over any topics they need help with.

Daily Lessons Include:
Entry Ticket/Spiral Review: Students will work on prior learned concepts.
Lesson: Students will participate in the interactive math lesson.
Explore: Students explore an interactive and/or real-world activity to introduce the topic.
Videos: Multiple videos to illustrate visually and explain verbally the math concepts.
Exit Ticket: Students will complete an exit ticket to show their understanding of the lesson.
Homework: Students will be given a homework assignment to practice the new skill. 

These math lessons will integrate real-world and engaging topics. Students will participate in interactive platforms such as Nearpod, Desmos, GeoGebra, Kahoot, and more. Students will be provided with several different options for homework every week which include procedural, real-world, and critical thinking assignments.
