Mathematics Review
Mathematics Review is an elective offered as an alternative to Creative Writing for students who wish to develop their math skills. Upon completion of course requirements in our credit option, students may receive a partial make-up credit in Algebra 1, Geometry or Algebra 2. (See below)
Individualized Math Sections
Individual math sections are based on student's previous math studies and the results of a placement test taken in the first days of the program. They are not designed to complete a whole year's course work, but are individualized to the student's needs.
All courses focus on:
• developing math reasoning skills
• the student's abilities and interests in math
• review of basic math skills and concepts
Pre-Algebra
Students focus on basic mathematical concepts such as fractions, decimals, percents and word problems.
Algebra I
Students review fractions, linear algebraic equations, exponents, and the rules of algebraic simplification.
Algebra II
This class focuses on quadratic equations, rational expressions, geometry review and SAT preparation.

The importance of computer Software.
We can use computer software in the classroom by, allowing children to do educational things and play different games etc.
Computer software is most commonly created by computer programmers using a programming language. The programmer writes commands in the programming language that are similar to what someone might use in everyday speech. These commands are called source code. Another computer program called a compiler is then used on the source code, transforming the commands into a language that the computer can understand. The result is an executable computer program, which is another name for software.
Computer software falls into two primary categories: system software and application software. System software represents programs that allow the hardware to run properly. Application software represents programs that allow users to do something besides simply run the hardware.
A few different types of computer software include:
* Computer Games
* Driver Software
* Educational Software
* Media Players and Media Development Software
* Productivity Software
