Description:

Students develop a strong grasp of fundamental Algebra concepts, such as linear equations, linear inequalities, systems of equations, exponents, and polynomials, factoring and more. Students acquire the skills to solve and graph equations manually, as well as identify and apply algebraic principles in real-life scenarios, enhancing their problem-solving and critical thinking abilities. This course will prepare students to advance to either Geometry or Algebra 2.

Class consists of reviewing previous weeks work, introducing new material, and practicing homework problems. We will develop strategies for approaching all types of word problems fearlessly! Math U See is an excellent program developed for homeschoolers in a co-op environment. Math U See works well within the Connections’ experience to support parents. Parents are responsible to correct each assignment and make sure homework is loaded each week on-line. Homework should take about 4 hours per week.

All videos and handouts are on-line.  If you miss a class, you can print out the in-class handout and watch each week’s video.  Students are always welcome to ZOOM into class remotely if you are sick or on vacation and would still like to attend.
