Algebra is generally introduced during middle school. Students tend to have a difficulty with algebra but the more you practice the better you will become.
Students should always check their work before handing in a quiz or test. It can be easy to make a simple mistake if you don’t look over your answers.

Geometry is about shapes and angles. Geometry like
algebra is introduced in middle school and is
included in standardized testing.
Geometry can be a fun subject. Students can play
with geometric manipulatives for a hands on learning
experience.

Pre-calculus is what students take before calculus. It gives students a foundation of what they will expect to learn in the future years if they continue taking math courses. Pre-calculus is usually taken by juniors and seniors in high school.
Graphing calculators are encouraged to help students especially in this area of math!
