Most students will cover all of the content in 4-8 weeks. This course requires completion of Unit 4 (Algebra) and Unit 5 (Geometry).Trigonometry is all about triangles, and the relationship between sides and angles of the right […]
Pre-Algebra #1: Positive & Negative Integers
[am4show have=’p156;p157′ guest_error=’guest_error_msg’ user_error=’user_error_msg’ ]Welcome to our introduction to Algebra! This course covers the Pre-Algebra concepts that will make sure we have a solid foundation to build on before moving onto Algebra. If your student needs more time with the concepts explored in this course, please take all the time you need to really master

Pre-Algebra #2: Operations on Integers
[am4show have=’p156;p157′ guest_error=’guest_error_msg’ user_error=’user_error_msg’ ]We’re going to continue learning how to work with positive and negative integers, learning how to do all four operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. We’ll also introduce properties that will help us solve for unknown values we’ll be doing in the future. For now, we’ll work with numbers as we

Pre-Algebra #3: Variables & Exponents
[am4show have=’p156;p157′ guest_error=’guest_error_msg’ user_error=’user_error_msg’ ]We’re ready to start introducing variables! Algebra is all about solving for things we want to know, like how many more goals the team needs to score in the second half in order to win the game; how many cookies a bag of flour will make; how far you can go

Pre-Algebra #4: Variables & Terms
[am4show have=’p156;p157′ guest_error=’guest_error_msg’ user_error=’user_error_msg’ ]This session is all about combining like terms, order of operations, and introducing word problems. We’ll be taking what we’ve learned so far about operations on integers and combining this with variables to help us learn how to set up a problem so it can be solved easily with algebra. Let’s

Pre-Algebra #5: Coordinate Plane
[am4show have=’p156;p157′ guest_error=’guest_error_msg’ user_error=’user_error_msg’ ]People use graphs every time they use a map, plan a road trip, track their spending, look at charts that compare everything from prices to population, and more! We’re going to dive into the world of graphing by discovering the cartesian coordinate plane, plotting points on a graph, and exploring the

Geometry #1: Lines & Angles
[am4show have=’p156;p157′ guest_error=’guest_error_msg’ user_error=’user_error_msg’ ](Grades 4-6th) Geometry FundamentalsWelcome to our new unit on Geometry! In this session, we’re going to discover points, line segments, rays, angles, and arrange these into different orientations like parallel, perpendicular, and special types of intersections. We’ll also put these things together to create quadrilaterals, triangles and discover the beautiful world

Geometry #2: Rectangles & Parallelograms, Triangles & Trapezoids
[am4show have=’p156;p157′ guest_error=’guest_error_msg’ user_error=’user_error_msg’ ]Rectangles & Parallelograms, Triangles & TrapezoidsA shape is defined by an outline or boundary of an object, and can have three sides (triangle), four sides (rectangle), five (pentagon), and more! A quadrilateral is a 2D shape with four sides, and we’ll be studying different types of these during our session, including

Geometry #3: Composite Shapes
[am4show have=’p156;p157′ guest_error=’guest_error_msg’ user_error=’user_error_msg’ ]Composite ShapesA shape created with two or more basics shapes is called a composite shape. There are many ways to break down complex (compound) shapes into simpler shapes. The main idea is when we need the area (or volume) of a complex shape, we first break it down into simpler components that
