NUMB3RS

Theory & Practice

Develops pre-algebra skills using number theory to build a strong foundation for the future study of algebra and geometry. Recommended for students who will take Pre-Algebra or Algebra.
(rising 6th and 7th grades)

LEπERS

Al-gabr Wa’l-muqabala: Completion & Balancing

Presents methodology and procedures to develop advanced algebraic skills essential for the study of higher mathematics. Recommended for students who will take Algebra I or II. (rising 7th through 9th grades)

PICTUR≅S
Construction & ProofBuilds on strong arithmetic and algebraic skills the inductive, deductive and constructive methods of geometry. The axiomatic method of geometric proofs will be emphasized throughout the course.
(rising 8th and 9th grades)
