How to get the most out of Foerster Algebra 2, Part One with Jean Hoeft:
-
First, read the course details below. Order the Course Materials.
-
Prepare a notebook for note taking and homework.
-
Students begin the course by clicking on the "Recording" and watching the lecture for Class One.
-
Review supplemental materials (videos or readings)
-
Complete the assignment(s). Turn it into your parent for grading, unless you have purchased the grading service. (All homework is the odds, so answers are in the back of the student edition.)
-
If you need review, go back and watch the recording again and/or go over the Power Point.
-
Repeat until all 14 classes are complete.
-
Once the course is completed to the parent's satisfaction, there is a Certificate of Completion at the end to be filled in for your records
Total classes: 14 live classes plus 14 recorded classes
Prerequisite: Algebra 1
Suggested grade level: 10th grade and up
Suggested credit: 1 full semester Math
Course description: Foerster Algebra 2 will pick up where we left of in Foerster Algebra 1 with solving complex algebraic equations, complex fractions and exploring rational as well as irrational numbers. Students will also begin their exploration of trigonometric functions, as well as using the geometry that they have learned to find lengths and measures of angles. Students will continue with the ideas of solving for a variable, but now use vector analysis to go along with it. This is a great next step after Algebra 1, and will lead into geometry smoothly.
Course materials: Algebra and Trigonometry: Functions and Applications (Prentice Hall Classics)
Homework: 4-5 lessons per week with 15-20 problems to work per lesson
