Weekly Concepts taught in Algebra 1 class.
If you miss a day of class or need further assistance understanding the concept, you can attend tutoring from me or any Algebra teacher. You can also look at YouTube videos on the concepts below. Upon returning to class, make sure you get the worksheets and notes missed during your absence. If you are out for an extended period of time, email me and I will send you electronic copies of the guided notes and worksheets. The lesson or concepts taught can be changed or delayed, by a couple of days, depending on different circumstances that may arise.
