Dimensions PreAlgebra
Times TBA. Please email me if you are interested in scheduling this class!
Tuition is $90 per four week period
I spent a considerable amount of time learning about and comparing various math curriculums before setting out on my Singapore Math adventure over 6 years ago. Since I started teaching this curriculum, I have continued to be delighted and amazed at how well it is put together and how it teaches kids of all ages to think like a mathematician, not a robot. There is a reason why Singapore students score higher in math than students in any other country and why so many schools in the United States are adopting this curriculum. Students in the Dimensions Math 1 course will discover for themselves why prime numbers are special... and why prime factors are so useful for understanding larger numbers. They will use graph paper to prove to demonstrate how square roots and cube roots work, and discuss practical applications for the use of negative numbers. Other topics covered in this class will include algebraic expressions and formulas, as well as algebraic manipulation. Each new puzzle solved will give your student that same thrill as winning a family board or card game. Math can be fun! You and your student are invited to join us in the adventure this summer!
