Khan Academy is a free resource available to students around the world, operating as a non-profit. The site breaks down educational topics in math, science, reading and writing, humanities, test preparation, life skills, and much more. Khan Academy offers a structured, comprehensive program that can help students in various stages of their math education; if you need a recap of Algebra 2, need to get ready for Algebra 2, or strengthen your Algebra 2 skills for the SAT or ACT (and want to achieve it in 8 weeks), keep reading.
We created this page for one main reason:
1) Students who are taking Algebra II as juniors instead of sophomores realistically can’t take the SAT or ACT until second semester, but some of them wanted to start earlier if possible, due to spring sports, or summer camp the summer after junior year, or other logistical reasons.
2) We have several self-starters each year that use this Khan Academy resource to get a head start on Algebra two and then do two things!
A) Start prep for SAT/ACT earlier than second semester.
B) Have an easier junior year workload since much of the Algebra II content will be familiar and easier. Helps with the GPA too!
If your student slated for Algebra II as a junior could benefit from this resource, please check it out!
