Pre-Algebra is designed to provide students with a strong foundation for Algebra 1 and Geometry.  Students will be provided with weekly lesson videos made by the tutor and practice problems for daily practice.  Class time will be spent reinforcing video lessons through review games, extended practice, and problem-solving.

Students will need to come to class having viewed the lessons and completed their daily homework assignments.  To assess students’ understanding of the material, quizzes and tests will be given in a stress-free environment.
