Welcome to Algebra I A/B
Welcome Back! This is going to be a great year in Algebra A/B. This class meets every day all year and will
cover the full course of Algebra. Algebra is considered a "gateway” course to your future mathematical
success. This course is very critical to establishing a solid foundation that you will be able to build on as you
continue your education. I am excited about what this year has to offer and really enjoy teaching algebraic
concepts. This class will be both challenging and rewarding! We will conclude the year with the state End Of
Course Exam which will count as 20% of your yearly average.
Items you will need…
3 ring binder with notebook and graph paper
Pencils, colored pencils, and dry erase markers
TI-83 or TI-84 graphing calculator
How to study…
Each night when you complete your homework, you need to go back to the section that was done the
class period before and work a few of each type of problem. Only work odd problems because the
answers are in the back of the book. Just spend 10-15 minutes doing this. If you have trouble, you
need to see me the very next day for help.

I am available for help most mornings by appointment, on Wednesday afternoons until 4:30. Please
don’t let things build, if you don’t understand something, see me immediately.
