Math 6

Laurie Lamb, Instructor

This class introduces new concepts as well as providing a review of concepts taught in elementary school. It is an ideal transition from elementary to secondary math. Topics covered are addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of whole numbers, fractions, and decimals; plane figure geometry with perimeter, area, and volume; equations; and ratios, proportions, and percents.

Prospective students will be required to take a placement test.

Math 6 and English 6 are a combined class. Since there are two different lesson plans to work through, the yearly cost for the combined class is $700.
