This class is appropriate for students who have successfully completed a year of Pre-Algebra and have strong problem-solving skills. Class time will be spent teaching algebra concepts and applications. Students must be able to take detailed notes (quickly) from the board and copy examples worked in class to review at home. Students will use the textbook as a resource for reference, daily homework assignments, and test review.
If you have questions about class placement, please contact me as early as possible so that decisions may be made in a timely manner to allow the student maximum success in their math studies.

Topics covered: 

• the number system
• solving equations; single-step and multi-step; single/multi variable
• ratios and proportions
• solving and graphing linear equations
• solving and graphing linear systems of equations
• solving and graphing linear inequalities
• solving and graphing linear systems of inequalities
• polynomials and factoring
• quadratic equations
