This class will start from Module 1 and finish the core AGS 1 curriculum in 6 weeks in Summer. It's good for students who are ready to learn ahead in a fast pace or review and solidify AGS I skills. All class materials in PDF format will be uploaded to the class page.
This is the supportive/enhanced AGS I class taught in a different way. We are teaching AGS I at sunshine using the Holt California Algebra I / Geometry curriculum to build up the fundamental concepts and skills in the series that AGS I requires, with much more in-depth understanding. We also use the AGS I curriculum to ensure the class is aligning with the required skills in AGS I.
Who will benefit from this class?
- Students who are taking AGS I class in school but need more support to learn AGS I systematically with clear instruction and more in-depth understanding.
- Students who want to learn ahead than what they are learning at school to prepare the skip-level math placement test for next school year.
