Course Description

View Syllabus

“She is heading into upper-level high school math. No wonder she is a little nervous!” If this might have been spoken about any student in your house, Algebra 1 Review can help. This course returns to the essential concepts taught in first-course algebra classes in order to extend students’ competence and firm up their algebraic foundation.

Over the seven weeks of the course, Algebra 1 Review studies the following topics:

  • Real Numbers
  • Linear equalities and inequalities
  • Quadratic Equations
  • Exponential and Radical Expressions
  • Probability
  • Polynomials

Before heading into Algebra 2, a review of Algebra 1 concepts can be just the ticket to retain learning and gain confidence for many students. This course is crafted with the intent of helping students build skills in the mechanics of those concepts.

Please note that no textbook will be required for this course as the instructor will provide all needed materials.

Course Structure

Each week of the course will focus on a specific topic utilizing multiple opportunities for engagement with the material. Students will view pre-recorded instructional videos, practice in digital homework, complete digital or printed activities, and join live sessions. Also, assessments will be given each week so students can gauge their skill level and pursue further practice when needed. The weekly live sessions will provide an avenue for students to gain insights and work through problems pertaining to the current topic of the class.
