Math (Class)

Math is a class taught at Lefebvre School of the Arcane that builds upon pervious math classes from primary school and middle school.
== Class Information ==
At Lefebvre, math is a required subject for students, first year to fifth year.
Around the classroom are the needed supplies and tools to help students solve the given math problems, and there are textbooks for algebra, geometry, algebra 2, trigonometry, and pre-calculus. Other than the listed items, the classroom used for math is more barren compared to the rest; being one of the classes that focuses on a skill unrelated to magic, this makes sense. The current professor is Amelia Jakowski.
Having a similar feeling to language arts, another class taught by Professor Jakoski, students either tolerate or hate this class. Most complaints stem from a dislike on the subject or trouble comprehending the material and not receiving sufficient assistance.
Most sessions are quiet as the students work on their own and preferable in their heads. Tests tend to be common, usually taking up a whole class session for the entire class to finish. Any cheating on tests must be reported and the offender will have to take a failing grade unless they make a deal for an authentic retake test and a detention. Most students have been made redo their test in detention. 
== Location ==
Room 302 on the third floor in the Southwest wing tower.
== Curriculum ==
The class is structured to help students transition into college-level math courses, and helps develop higher thinking skills, and uses practical, real-life math examples to teach the material.
The material taught at Lefebvre are:
* Algebra 1: This is the start of lessons on algebra, the study of mathematical symbols and the rules for manipulating these symbols. Algebra 1 will go over many algebraic components, such as expressions, systems of equations, functions, real numbers, inequalities, exponents, polynomials, radical and rational expressions. 
* Geometry: This branch covers the learning of the properties and relationships of geometric objects and their points, lines, angles, surfaces, and higher dimensional analogs.
* Algebra 2: This continues on from algebra 1, and adds on by introducing new material on linear equations, graphs, matrices, quadratic equations, exponential and logarithmic expressions, sequences and series, probability and trigonometry.
* Trigonometry: A branch of mathematics that studies relationships between side lengths and angles of triangles. In trigonometry, students will learn to calculate the sides of a triangle from the dimension of only one side and two angles. Students learn to use sine, cosine, and tangent to find the measures of a triangle, it’s angles, and its sides. Lessons on vectors and vector operations are also taught in this class.
* Pre-Calculus: Pre-calculus is a precursor to calculus that includes algebra and trigonometry to prepare students for the study of calculus. In pre-calculus, students will learn that change can be looked at in two ways: in terms of rate of change and in terms of accumulation.
