We'll go over the full course of algebra 1 using the chapters outlined in the Openstax textbook Elementary Algebra 2e and Intermediate Algebra 2e. This series is suitable for learners who have completed the pre-algebra course. Starting on August 13th, 2024 and ending on August 31st, 2024, in each week, there will be three 90-minute sessions on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays covering key concepts. We'll finish all chapters for Elementary Algebra 2e during the summer. There will also be a 90-minute session on Sundays for office hours where you can ask questions and review concepts. More make-up sessions and office hours may be provided by messaging me. We'll go over chapters in Intermediate Algebra 2e during the school year. Sessions during the school year will be scheduled according to learners' needs! Note: some questions in the assessments are in or inspired by the Openstax textbooks Elementary Algebra 2e and Intermediate Algebra 2e. Citations for assessments and textbook links: 1.

We will review one unit from the Khan Academy Pre-Algebra course each week, incorporating practice problems from Khan Academy.

Each Sunday we will go over 1 topic at a time about Pre-Algebra. There will be time at then end for Q&A and help to any homework questions you have related to the topic during the week. Every week I will be adding new sessions so don't worry if yours isn't here! Each session is 1-hour long. In this session, we will learn about the given topics, see any cool shortcuts to help solve faster, and then we will provide some practice problems to help you understand the given topic much better. We will play Gimkits, Blookets and other games to help engage ourselves in the topic and apply what we learn. This series will cover every topic through pre-algebra so I recommend that you stay through with the whole series. You won't be needing any materials although it is recommended to have scratch paper, pencil, eraser, and a calculator. Enjoy!
