MTWThF 1:00-3:00pm This Algebra I boot camp is designed for high school students who are: (1) struggling with Pre- Algebra/8 th grade math concepts, (2) preparing to take Algebra I this upcoming school year, or (3) retaking Algebra I. Students will be given incomplete multiplication fact tables through the duration of the camp. They will need to fill out and hand in every table at the start of each day. This will help solidify their facts as they continue to move further into Algebra I. A few major concepts seen throughout a basic Algebra I course will be introduced each day. Such concepts include but are not limited to: a review of the order of operations (PEMDAS), evaluating algebraic expressions, reviewing mathematical properties, graphing lines from equations using slope-intercept form, an introduction to polynomials, and using the greatest common factor. Students will have a chance to form groups and work on problems together after each short lecture. Algebra I Topics w/ Schedule Outline Topics to be covered:  Day 1 – Multiplication facts / Percentages, Fractions, & Decimals  Day 2 – The Order of Operations: PEMDAS / Negative Numbers  Day 3 – Single Variable Algebra Equations / Evaluating Algebraic Equations / Properties: Commutative, Associative, Distributive, Inverse, & Identity  Day 4 – Slope-Intercept Form / Addition, Subtraction, & Multiplication of Polynomials  Day 5 – More on Slope-Intercept Form / Factoring Polynomials (Using the GCF) / Substitution Instructors: Emily attended Clark College and earned her Associate's degree in Biology. She resumed her academic studies at Central Washington University in 2020 and obtained her Bachelor's degree in Chemistry with a minor in Biology. She enjoys sharing her favorite subjects with students, supporting them, and making quality education accessible to those wanting to homeschool their children. Emily has experience with middle school math, Algebra I, Algebra II, Trigonometry, Calculus, Physical Science, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Organic Chemistry, digital illustration, and watercolors.
