About Our Class:

In this math course, students will be introduced to several pre-algebra concepts outlined in the lesson breakdown below. This class provides an introductory exposure to the skills, rather than mastery. The class will involve discussions, modeling, and practice, with an emphasis on note-taking. It is essential for students to have a solid understanding of basic math operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and fractions. Homework will consist of worksheets and/or online skill practice, and learner progress will be evaluated through class participation. Students who wish to further explore pre-algebra can take part 2 of this class.

The next class is scheduled for Mondays at 10:45 am CST starting on 1/12/25 and ending on 3/17/25. Please contact me to be put on the list of interested parents. Once we have 4 parents interested in having their child take this class, an email will be sent for registration. https://form.jotform.com/241617203748153

Class Format:

Our weekly live class meetings will be held via Zoom. Students will access their lessons, print worksheets, submit assignments, join discussions, and view their feedback through our classroom platform, Canvas.

I strive to keep our class sizes small so we will have between 4-6 learners in class. This is a good number for student interaction:)
