Students with a solid foundation in arithmetic are now prepared to apply it to the study of algebra. They will appreciate right away that every algebraic concept logically builds on the previous one, a demonstration of the truth and order that God has built into the universe. Using the properties of equality, your teen will learn step by step how to solve linear equations that include fractions, decimals, rational expressions, radical expressions, and absolute value expressions. Inequalities are similarly introduced using inequality notation and inequality properties. The equations, inequalities, and functions are graphed, analyzed, solved, and expanded in systems of equations. The Abeka Academy teacher provides clear explanation and the text provides abundance of practice and review exercises to make it possible for your teen to master and retain the concepts. To emphasize the practical use of algebra, word problems in the course materials highlight applications from daily life and career situations.
As your teen becomes acquainted with his classmates on the video, he will enjoy feeling as though he is a part of the class. The teacher will even pause to allow “students watching” opportunity to participate. In fact, he may enjoy it so much that he will choose to watch the designated optional lessons on such topics as solving mixture problems, writing equations for polygons, and factoring by grouping.
