Class Description: This course is an elective credit (1 for the year). We will review problem solving activities from basic algebra through geometry and advanced algebra including the fundamentals of trigonometry. Materials used will be both on-line and hard copy test preps. Problems will be analyzed with respect to simplicity versus complexity and number awareness. There will be an emphasis on test taking strategies. This course will be using graphing calculator applications for *TI-84 plus or *TI-84 plus silver edition. (*strongly suggested) Calculators TI-83 plus & TI-84 plus C/CE (color) do NOT work with some apps/programs. I would NOT suggest the purchase of these.

This course is designed to increase ACT test scores with students’ participation. take initiative to increase their own scores by asking questions, participating in class, and analyzing incorrect problems with explanation of solutions on their own time as well.

Note: This class requires the student to GRADE all assignments and review/correct all missed problems in order to receive a completion grade. Missing work is only accepted up to 2 weeks late with points off. (1 week late =25% off, 2 weeks late=50% off, after 2 weeks=zero will be given)

Teacher Biography: I am a wife of 32 years to Brad, a mother to two beautiful daughters, and two sweet grandbabies. I have lived in Tuttle for nearly 30 years. I homeschooled my two daughters in 8th grade for my oldest, Allison and 4th grade for my youngest, Julia. I have a degree in Math Education from the University of Central Oklahoma and am certified in all middle school and high school math courses through Calculus. I have experience of teaching in public school and homeschool co-ops for over 20 years combined. I have taught in Norman and Moore in their middle schools and high schools. I have taught Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Geometry, ACT Math Prep, Trigonometry, Algebra 3: College Algebra CLEP, and Calculus. I have worked with math curriculum companies in the past for approximately six years reviewing and creating reports for the departments of education throughout the United States. The companies take these reports to their state departments for their curriculum to be chosen across the school districts for state adoptions. I have also written many test questions for state tests. I have also been tutoring math for about 25 years including public school students, Epic students, homeschooled students, and college students. God has a great plan for me through teaching including other students as well as my own. I am always amazed by God’s blessings and those I have encountered through my journey. HE has allowed me to teach my own children along with gifting others as well. I love teaching and gear my teaching to the success of my students! They are the reason I am here!!
