My CLASS SCHEDULE

COURSE DESCRIPTIONS:

Geometry is the study of shapes. We will cover basic geometric terms, study the properties of angles, and parallel lines and angle relationships. Topics that will be familiar from 8th grade are Pythagorean Theorem, area, perimeter, surface area, and volume.

Algebra 1 is an introduction to high school math. It introduces the concept of a function, understanding linear equations and graphs, slope, y-intercept, and solving equations. Algebra 1 is a foundational course in high school mathematics!

A little bit about me...

I was formerly an assistant sophomore basketball coach for a very short time for the 2009-2010 season. The high school no longer competes in the 5-A League.

I grew up in Los Angeles, CA and attended Amherst College. I received a BA in Economics in 2008. Currently a teacher through the Teach for America program.

I also like pistachios, reading interesting novels, and long walks on the beach.
