Welcome to Algebra 2 !
Before we get too far into the fun, I wanted to personally introduce myself: I'm your virtual instructor, Professor Burger. Welcome to Thinkwell's wonderful world of Algebra 2!
Together, you and I will build on the concepts we developed in Algebra 1 and explore new, more challenging ideas that are central to Algebra 2. Through my lessons I hope to help you to MAKE MEANINGFUL CONNECTIONS with the math ideas in Algebra 2 — there ’ s no need to memorize if you focus on deep understanding. I invite (urge) you to take the time to truly think through the math we ’ ll explore together and to mindfully practice the skills behind the ideas every day. If you do, you ’ ll not only succeed in Algebra 2, but you ’ ll also be on solid ground for all the other math in your future! About This Book This is a companion book to Thinkwell's Algebra 2 online video course. Use this book as a complement to the online materials. I always say that to learn math you must DO MATH! I encourage you to put pencil to paper and • take notes in this book • highlight key concepts and earmark ideas you want to remember • doodle, sketch, and visualize the math ideas presented in each topic.
