Teacher's Classes

We will study the basic operation skills (+,-,x,/) with integers, fractions, decimals and percents, which make up the core operations for higher mathematics. We will also learn simple equation solving skills. If time allows, we will touch on a few other areas as well. Pre-Algebra covers important math skills that prepare the way for a successful transition to Algebra 1 as well as beginning high school science courses. Please note that there is a two month drop fee after the first month. TEXTBOOK: Bob Jones Pre-Algebra

Students must have completed an Algebra 1 course successfully to enroll in Geometry. We will study the branch of mathematics dealing with points, lines, planes, and solids, and examine their properties, measurement, and mutual relation in space. We will also do geometric proofs, which are a great tool to teach thinking skills!
/ /
/ /TEXTBOOK and Materials: Glencoe Geometry, own compass, protractor, and ruler. They should also have access to a scientific calculator, although this is not mandatory. Calculators are especially helpful for those students who are weak in basic math facts.
/ /
/ /Students will be expected to take detailed notes during classes and to complete daily homework assignments using their notes and textbooks for reference. Parents will be asked to supervise some testing at home to allow the best use of classroom teaching time. Both parents and students will be asked to sign a code of honor. Please note that there is a two month drop fee after the first month.

If I find what I am looking for, I will purchase the books and add the cost on to the supply fee. This cost will be kept to $20 or less, and you would be notified of the cost should I decide to do this. / / / /

Students must have successfully completed an Algebra I course before enrolling in this class. We will study the branch of mathematics dealing with points, lines, planes, and solids, and examine their properties, measurements, and mutual relations in space. / /

 Geometric proofs and coordinate geometry, both of which promote logic and thinking skills, will also be used to learn this material. Much of the material in this course will be found on the math portion of the SAT and the ACT.

 TEXTBOOK: Holt Geometry

/ /

/ /

Specific book and class information will be sent to registered students in late spring.
/ /
/ /

/ /

Students must supply their own compass, protractor, ruler, and scientific calculator. If you prefer a graphing calculator, I would recommend a TI 84 as it works well for future math classes, including SAT/ACT testing and college classes. This is not required for Geometry, though.

 Students will be expected to take detailed notes during classes and to complete daily homework assignments using their notes and textbook for reference.
