Pre-Algebra Syllabus

*Please note that this course is for ELECTIVE, rather than math, credit in most cases. It is not HS level work. It is excellent preparation for HS level work.*

Your math course will be complete when you are done with THREE things:

1. A+ Mastery Tests (80% or better on each one)
2. Gizmos complete (70% on Assessments and Exploration Guide Qs)
3. Math Notebook

Generally student find it easiest to do the A+ to learn the basic concept and then go to the Gizmo to apply that concept or see it in action. In a math class it often does make sense to do the activities in order because the concepts build on previous material.

PLEASE ASK FOR HELP IF YOU HAVE TRIED A LESSON THREE TIMES AND ARE STILL STUCK. We want you to learn, not to be stuck!

KEEP ALL YOUR NOTES from the A+ Lessons and any paper you use to work on the problems on tests. You will turn these in as a graded assignment.
