  • ✓Mastering BEDMAS involving negative integers, fractions, and exponential powers
  • ✓Understanding equations with variables on both sides (e.g., 3x + 4 = 5x - 8)
  • ✓Applying the Pythagorean theorem to solve multi-step geometric word problems
  • ✓Reading scatter plots and discerning between correlation and causation
  • ✓Instilling rigorous mathematical organization: defining variables, showing line-by-line steps, and checking answers
