대수학 1 집중 강좌 - 방정식의 눈을 통해

Each lesson, students will be given instruction based on the syllabus listed below. Students will be given time between lessons to check-in with Mr. Wittmer to ask clarifying questions on that lesson's key concept via Outschool communication, or video conference calling.

This course is designed for the learners to receive instruction on one of the biggest concepts that is covered in the Algebra 1 curriculum, equations. Each lesson explains the various different forms in which you may see an equation through the Algebra 1 curriculum. Each lesson will provide major vocabulary, algebraic properties, explanation of the concept being taught, tools in which students can use when their teachers are not with them to help solve and of course several examples (ranging in difficulty) that will be worked out as a class (all examples will not be worked out in class).

For each lesson students will have the option to print out a Lesson Worksheet and they will have access to the KEY to that Worksheet. Even though we as a class will not have enough time to work through every single problem, students will still have access to all the answers. The last day of class will be a collaborative team Jeopardy showdown having the students demonstrate their understanding of everything that was learned over the span of this course.

Each class will be content delivered from Mr. Wittmer via direct instruction/lecture. Following the lesson, students will be given an opportunity to interact and ask questions about the day's lesson and they will be assessed through Google Forms. In addition, Mr. Wittmer will be available via email if there were any questions not answered during the class.
