AGS 2B is the second course of AGS 2, which is usually scheduled in the Winter/Spring term. Students who finish this course will be ready to take the AGS 3 course next year.
AGS 2 is the full school year curriculum. This is the supportive/enhanced AGS II class taught in a different way. We are teaching AGS II at sunshine using the Holt California Algebra I / Geometry curriculum to build up the fundamental concepts and skills in the sequence that AGS I requires, with much more in-depth understanding. We also use the AGS II curriculum to ensure the class is aligning with the topics in AGS II.
Who will benefit from this class?
- Students who are taking AGS 2 at school but need more support to learn AGS 2 systematically with clear instruction and more in-depth understanding.
- Students who want to learn ahead of what they are learning at school to prepare for the skip-level math placement test for the next school year.
