Welcome Homeschool Math Teachers!
Are You Ready for Algebra?
I hope the answer to that question is YES! Why? Because Algebra is so much fun to teach! I'm sure that as a homeschool math teacher, you already know that. I think it's the turning point for a lot of students. This is where logic and challenge sets in.
I really give you A LOT of credit. I know that homeschooling takes a lot of dedication and work! Homeschool math teachers especially have a hard job. KUDOS to You!
Ok... so as for Algebra - Hopefully I can help you.
Do You Have An Algebra Curriculum?
You may have an Algebra curriculum that you are following. If you are looking for resources to supplement your curriculum, this is a great place to start.
Each lesson on the website has several examples for you to clarify your understanding. I've also provided a few practice problems if you are in need of more practice. The best thing about my practice problems, is I've included detailed step-by-step answers to all of the problems. That's the only way you'll be able to identify your mistakes. I hope this resource helps you.
Below you will see a list of units for Algebra 1. Click on the unit you are working on to find the lessons. (These units are also on the left hand side nav bar on each page for quick navigation.)
Are You Looking for an Algebra Curriculum?
I am in the process of developing a homeschool math curriculum for Algebra 1. However, it is not complete and will not be completed this school year. But.. you can use this website as a guide for teaching Algebra 1. If you complete all of the units, you will have completed all skills within an Algebra 1 curriculum. All of the lessons on Algebra-class.com were taught in my Algebra 1 class!
