In this second part of Mastering Algebra, we will concentrate on The Coordinate System, from graphing to writing equations. Who can join? Everyone, from a beginner wanting a head start, to an experienced Algebra student that needs additional practice, as well as homeschool students needing math instructions. Either way, this is the class for you. 

Let's begin:
Week 1: The Coordinate Plane
     ~ Plotting Points 
     ~ Points as Solutions to Equations of Lines 
     ~ Graphing Equations of Lines Using Points 
Week 2: Intercepts and Slope
     ~ Graphing Equations of Lines Using x- and y- Intercepts 
     ~ Finding Slope from Graphs 
     ~ Finding Slope form Equations 
Week 3: Graphing and Writing Equations of Lines
     ~ Graphing Equations of Lines Using the Slope-Intercept Form 
     ~ Graphing Horizontal and Vertical Lines and Fastest Method 
     ~ Writing Equations of Lines Given Slope and the y- Intercept 
Week 4: Writing Equations of Lines
     ~ Writing Equations of Lines Given Slope and a Point 
     ~ Finding Slope Given Two Points 
     ~ Writing Equations of Lines Given Two Points 
Week 5: Writing Equations of Vertical, Horizontal, Parallel, and Perpendicular Lines
     ~ Writing Equations of Horizontal and Vertical Lines 
     ~ Slopes of Parallel and Perpendicular Lines 
     ~ Write Equations of Parallel and Perpendicular Lines 

Students will have access to the following material:
•	Weekly Video Lessons will be posted every Monday at 8:00AM EST.
•	Student is encouraged to take down notes in the provided workbook.
•	Additional examples with step-by-step written solutions will be available for download.
•	Additional homework practice questions with answers also available for download.
•	Graded weekly homework assignments and end of class assessments can be provided by teacher upon request.

Student will be encouraged to:
•	Answer a weekly discussion question and comment on at least one other classmates’ posts by Sunday (OPTIONAL).
•	Teacher will also be contributing to the weekly discussion question.
•	If weekly graded homework assignments requested, these will be due every Sunday.
•	If graded end of class assessment requested, this will be due one week after the last day of class.

There are no live meetings, but students should prepare to spend 2-4 hours per week completing the course.
