This course was developed for students who, by the nature of their mathematical backgrounds, can expect to learn Algebra 1 more effectively by having it presented at a slower pace.  The course follows the general goals and objectives of the regular Algebra 1 course; however, the additional time will allow the teacher to give attention to the varying remediation needs of the target students.  Students begin this course during the summer prior to the 9th grade.

Prerequisite: Based on entrance test scores.

Required: Texas Instruments TI-84 plus graphing calculator.  NO school bus yellow calculators allowed.

Level: 9

Credit: 10
