Series Details
About
For learners who are planning on taking Pre-Algebra for the next school year. The course will happen throughout the summer to prepare learners for the upcoming school year. This is a fast-paced course that will require learners to dedicate time outside of session meetings. Failure to commit to the course may result in removable from the course. I may open additional slots if there is more demand.
We will meet twice a week for one hour each to cover all of the main topics in KA's Pre-Algebra course. Please reference the Khan Academy Pre-Algebra course page for more information. We will cover an entire unit's worth of content in each session. All lectures will be referenced with practice problems and will require learners to take notes in their notebook. After each session, I will assign homework that will be due by the next session. At the beginning of each session, we will go over the answers to the previous night's homework. Learners may ask questions during this time and are always encouraged to ask questions throughout the entire session.
Upon request, I will host additional optional office hour sessions for learners that are struggling with their homework or classwork. Times will depend on my schedule and availability, but I will try my best to accommodate all of my learners.
Please have a notebook, scientific calculator, and a pencil ready for each class. It is important that we keep everything organized and we will discuss how we will organize our notebooks during orientation.
