Algebra 1
The Algebra 1 Course is a High School Accredited Course, which means if a students takes and passes Algebra 1 in 8th Grade, they will receive a high school credit (they will need 4 math credits to graduate).
In Algebra 1, instructional time will emphasize five areas:
(1) performing operations with polynomials and radicals, and extending the Laws of Exponents to include rational exponents;
(2) extending understanding of functions to linear, quadratic and exponential functions and using them to model and analyze real-world relationships;
(3) solving quadratic equations in one variable and systems of linear equations and inequalities in two variables;
(4) building functions, identifying their key features and representing them in various ways; and
(5) representing and interpreting categorical and numerical data with one and two variables.
This year we will be using All Things Algebra Curriculum and Math Nation for learning, iXL and Delta Math for supplemental Practice, and Composition Notebooks and Google Classroom for Organization and Materials.
