1 Summer Math Review Algebra Packet Dear Parents and Students, We have prepared this optional math packet by gathering information from online sources and various schools in an effort to prepare our students for a successful school year. This work is not intended to be completed in one sitting rather it should be done at a steady pace throughout the summer. I have included an answer key so that the students can check their answers. This packet will NOT be graded nor will it be collected at the beginning of the year. The packet is designed to provide students with extra practice that will support with their retention of basic Algebra skills which are required for the Geometry course at the upper school. The students can be assisted, and I encourage dialogue surrounding tough questions. I have enjoyed teaching you all this year, and I wish you a very happy, healthy and safe summer! Enjoy, Mrs. Nolan Name: School where Algebra I was taken:
