Algebra I – Year (5210)
Students in Algebra 1 will learn algebra as a style of thinking for formalizing patterns, functions, and generalizations. In this course, students will expand previously learned quantitative rational number relationships to include the irrational numbers. The focus will be on proficiency in recognizing and working effectively with linear relationships and their corresponding representations in tables, graphs, and equations; such proficiency includes competence in solving linear equations, generating equivalent expressions, using formulas, and applying proportionality. To develop proficiency in symbolic and graphical representations, students will use physical models, visual models, and technology. While math skills will be developed, teaching will focus on the understanding of concepts, with depth, enabling students to apply mathematical skills and make meaningful connections in life’s experiences. A graphing calculator is recommended. Prerequisite: Pre-Algebra (5090) or (5030).


Geometry - Year (5320)
Students in geometry study Euclid’s postulates and theorems as the basis for an axiomatic system. Students will explore geometry
through inductive and deductive processes, technology, constructions, manipulatives, and algebraic connections. Topics of investigation include logic, angle and line relationships, triangles and other polygons, congruence, and similarity. Students also study coordinate geometry. Trigonometric ratios of sine, cosine, and tangent are used to solve triangle problems. Students will use area, volume, geometric probability, and geometric relationships to solve real-life problems. While math skills will be developed, teaching will focus on the understanding of concepts with depth, enabling students to apply math skills and make meaningful connections in life’s experiences. This course carries credit equivalent to Applied Math 2. A graphing calculator is recommended. Prerequisite: Algebra
