Pre-Algebra Course Summary
This course is designed for the middle school student preparing to enter a high school level algebra course. Students taking this course should have strong skills in arithmetic to include fraction operations.
The first part of Pre-Algebra will explore areas of Real Numbers (positive/negative numbers), solving equations, graphing and writing lines and inequalities.
Part 2 of the course deals with topics such as functions and relations, systems, quadratic equations, polynomials, powers and exponents and rational/radical expressions.
There are also sections on basic geometry to include circles, area, volume, Distance formula and Pythagorean Theorem.

Algebra 1 Course Summary
This course is designed for those students entering a high school level/ college
prep math track. Before starting this course students should have finished a
Pre-Algebra or equivalent course (8th grade math as an example). Upon completion
of TabletClass Algebra 1 students can take Geometry or Algebra 2 courses.
The first part of Algebra 1 is focused on
real numbers, absolute value, equations/formulas, graphing and writing linear
equations to including graphing absolute value functions. The next part of the
course deals with functions and relations and solving quadratic equations.
Linear systems are studied in-depth to include Linear Programming.
Lastly the
course focuses on polynomial operations and factoring techniques. Additionally
powers and exponents are covered along with and methods to simplify various
radical and rational expressions/equations.

Geometry Course Summary
This course is designed for high
school students after the completion of algebra 1. Because a
good foundation and understanding of algebra is required for
geometry, the course does provide algebra reviews at the end of
each chapter. Students can expect to study a wide range of
topics in geometry essential for more advance study in
mathematics. Additionally, the course focuses on problem solving
skills so it provides excellent preparation for college entrance
tests such as the SAT and ACT.
Students will first learn about various basic concepts to
include: points, lines, angles and planes. Next the course
introduces the student to the study of logic which is the
foundation of geometric proof. Students will learn about the
role theorems and postulates play in geometry.
Each respective chapter of the course focuses students on the
essential topics of high school geometry. Numerous topics will
be studied in depth to include: triangles, quadrilaterals,
congruence and similarity, transformations, right triangles,
trigonometry, circles, area and volume.
Note: the course does teach and
challenge students to write geometric proofs as it is a key
skill in understanding the importance
of logic in mathematics.

Algebra 2 Course Summary
This course is designed as a high school second or third year
college prep math course.
A strong foundation in concepts and skills of Algebra 1
is required. The first part of the course is an extensive series of sections on
basic algebra topics that students should have mastered in Algebra 1. Part 2 of
the course focuses on quadratic equations/complex numbers, linear systems and
matrices/determinants.
The next part of the course covers functions and relations and powers and radicals at a more
advance level.
The course finishes by introducing many advance level topics to
include exponential/logarithmic functions and solving polynomials of n-degree. Also a chapter on rational functions is
explored to include a section on graphing rational functions.

GED Math Prep Course Summary
This course is targeted for those students that need to strengthen their math skills to pass the GED test. No requirement is needed for students to
take this course, but strong arithmetic skills are vital. Time is taken to explain fraction and decimals, basic number operations,
variables and order of operations.
Additionally, the course focuses on building a student's skill and confidence to work with positive/negative numbers and fractions.
Other parts of the course teach students in a step-by-step manner how to solve equations and inequalities. The topic of graphing lines is covered in depth along with writing the equation to a line.
Latter parts of the course cover powers, percents, ratios, proportions with a focuses on application and word problems. Basic systems and matrix operations are also explained at the appropriate level. Lastly the course reviews key geometry concepts to include area, surface area, volume and circles. The Distance and Mid-point formulas are explained along with the Pythagorean Theorem.
