Course Description
This is a hybrid class. Students attend a two-hour class once a week for 36 weeks and are expected to complete and submit homework twice a week between classes. Students will receive comments on work submitted via the internet. These comments will frequently require students to revise their work. Students should expect to spend at least 20 minutes a day, 5-6 days a week on homework.
In addition to core algebra topics, students gain skills in time management, personal accountability, organization, and independent study skills. Students will be required to follow rigid standards to write and evaluate mathematical expressions and statements that are supported by properties and definitions. Students will further develop study skills introduced in Accelerated 6th Grade Math and Prealgebra.
