Welcome to 7th & 8th Grade Algebra!

Check our Google Classroom for Daily Assignments and Announcements.

Email me with any questions:  cbuonocore@jacksonsd.org

Get ready to be mathematical thinkers and problem solvers!

This year we will be reviewing topics from PreAlgebra, expanding your knowledge of Algebra and even getting you ready for Algebra 2 topics!

You can expect to have homework almost every night and a couple times a week I will check it in class the next day.  I will give you a handout explaining my grading requirements and what is expected of you on the first day.

Upcoming Events & Information

Will be posted on our Google Classroom. 

Algebra 1 - EdGems

 I will post our daily lesson on our Google Classroom, as well as assignments.  I will get each student setup in class on the first day.

Desmos.com is an online calculator that does more than just calculate.  We will be using it for graphing, as well as other class activities.
