HIGHSCHOOL-B

Algebra II Honors Online 

As students refine and expand their algebraic skills during second semester, they will draw analogies between the operations and field properties of real numbers and those of complex numbers and algebraic expressions. Throughout the course students complete hands on activities and performance tasks which require them to write out and show calculations.

Like all math courses at NFC Academy students are provided additional math instructional videos for their use as needed for more practice and instruction. Just like Edgenuity online homeschool courses, these videos are ready when the student is 24/7 on our website.

All honor level courses from Edgenuity are not written from a biblical worldview and you may find some material that is different from that view we hold—from our web page on a biblical worldview “we look to the Bible for our beliefs and how we should operate. We believe students at this level can use wisdom in such courses, but if you are uncomfortable, please select from our Ignitia course offerings.
