Material Advice: Holt Algebra 2 Texas Edition (textbook), Khan Academy, Desmos
General Advice:
- Use your textbook!!!!! Whenever you don’t understand the lesson of the day or specific contents, I recommend that you find that section in this textbook, as it will provide in-depth explanations and examples on that topic. Even if you understand all of the content that you learned that day, I still strongly
recommend that you at least look through the section you learned from the textbook because sometimes the textbook provides a different/faster approach to the problem or contains some example problems that your teacher might not have gone over in class. Holt textbook also provides answers to the odd numbered questions on the back so you can do some practice problems and check your answers!
-Try to understand every word problem : if you see any word problems on your homework or quiz that you don’t understand, ask your teacher- because it is very likely that similar type of word problems will appear on your test!
- Review every other day : You probably won't have time to study Algebra II every day, but at least study every other day and review the concepts that you learned before starting your homework. If you study every other day, you won’t have to painfully cram everything into your head before the test day!
