SUMMER COURSES
Fractions, Decimals, Percents
One Day Academy
We cover a basic overview of the meanings and definitions of these 3 forms of describing portions. We look at the 4 basic operations for decimals and fractions. We look at how to convert among fractions, decimals, and percents. And we look at how to properly understand and manipulate mixed fractions. Part of each step is working with fractions which contain, not just numbers, but also variables as well.
Intro to Algebra
One Day Academy
We cover a basic overview of the rules and procedures of working with signed numbers, as well as the conceptual foundations of understanding and solving first degree equations. We also explore operations with signed numbers as they apply to variables. We examine the fundamental principles of exponents, and how they provide the building blocks for handling polynomial expressions. Finally, we introduce two dimensional graphing, including how to graph lines.
Algebra Applications
For One Day Academy Summer Class
A special emphasis will be placed on how to think in approaching a word problem.
Each of the 10 weeks will be spent looking at a major type of application in algebra, and the skills which are required to support working the application problems. Topics include percentages (tax, increase, profit), variation, ratios and proportions, rate and distance, total value, and linear modeling.
Intro to Algebra II
One Day Academy
Following Introduction to Algebra, we will look at the major components of higher level algebra: solving non-linear equations, higher order polynomials, solving systems, non-whole number exponents, rational expressions, and several levels of difficulty of writing linear equations from data.
Intro to Trig and Pre-cal
home or in a group
We look at a variety of topics, including graphing, triangle solution and application, proofs, angular velocity, and equations. A special emphasis is placed on learning the theory behind the unit circle, and how to use this theory to learn all the exact values which trig work expects a student to memorize.
Intro to Calculus
For Summer Class at
One Day Academy
We look at a variety of topics, including limits, continuity, derivatives, integrals, and related rates. A special emphasis is placed on difference quotients and understanding the foundation of calculus: finding the limit of adding a finite number of calculations as the number of calculations goes to infinity.
Intro to High School English 1
Goals
This course is designed to bridge the frequently seen gap between Middle School and High School English. In only six weeks, students can review concepts taught in One Day Academy’s Middle School English 2 while learning concepts and skills that will prepare them for One Day Academy’s High School English 1.
Three Prong Approach
During this course, students will cover three main aspects of English: Writing, Grammar, Vocabulary.
The material covered in the writing portion are consistent in preparing students for One Day Academy’s High School English 1 course and build off the materials taught in One Day Academy’s Middle School English 2.
The grammar portion of this course utilizes the first half of Jensen’s Punctuation where students will learn the five main sentence structures and how to punctuate them. Students will need to purchase Jensen’s Punctuation.
For vocabulary, students will review the prefixes and suffixes taught in Middle School English 1 and the roots taught in Middle School English 2.
