Pre-Algebra 1 is an online course in math aimed at giving students a solid foundation as they embark upon the study of Algebra.
This camp is ideal for students in advanced elementary and middle school levels (grades 5-7).
It begins with a review of Arithmetic and slowly expands the student’s vocabulary to new types of numbers (negatives, fractions, decimals) explaining how to reason in these number systems.
With the improved skills in abstraction, the camp helps them understand how to formulate and solve linear equations in one variable.
Students will begin with an Arithmetic review, and move on to the distributive property, order of precedence, fractions and ratios, speed and rates of variation, decimals, percentages, negative numbers, variables and simplification of expressions.
