Welcome Back, Students!

I'm excited to begin a new year of teaching.  This year I'll be working with two groups:  Algebra I and Pre-Algebra.

Algebra I Students:

Today in class we went through a pre-test, and had a discussion about fractions.  We'll be doing a lot of review in the context of learning new things.

Please begin your studies by reviewing how to add fractions with both like and unlike denominators.
