PEMDAS to SADMEP : Intro to Algebra

***This is a flex schedule class. There are no live meetings in this class.***

Course Goals:
By the end of the class, students will be able to evaluate expressions using order of
operations (PEMDAS) and solve linear equations by using order of operations backwards
(SADMEP). Here are just a few examples of questions students will be able to answer:

3^2-(4*5+7)
5x+4=10
3(x-2)=2(x+5)

Course Methods:
Students will take notes while watching lesson videos. They will then be given a few short
assignments practice what they have learned. They will be given instant feedback and grades on
their responses to the homework, along with worked out solution videos! And, of course, I will also
be available to answer any additional questions students may have.

There are six lessons in this course:
1. Intro to PEMDAS
2. Advanced PEMDAS
3. One-Step Equations
4. Intro to SADMEP
5. Intermediate SADMEP
6. Advanced SADMEP
