Stride’s Pre-Algebra credit recovery course is intended to formalize and extend the mathematics that students learned in the middle grades and prepare students for a formal algebra course. In this course, students deepen their understanding of linear equations and inequalities by contrasting them with each other. Students also learn about systems of equations and inequalities and prepare for Algebra with an initial exposure to polynomials, their properties and how to operate with them. Students also study irrational numbers and the Pythagorean theorem.Students take short diagnostic assessments at the beginning of the course for blocks of related content within each unit. Student performance on these assessments determines the content revealed to the student.
