ALGEBRA II:  This course is a continuation of algebraic and geometric concepts developed in Algebra I and Geometry. Students will review solving equations, inequalities, and graphing functions. The students will continue their foundation of functions, use symbol and manipulations to simplify and solve, connect algebra and geometry, work different methods for solving systems of equations, matrices, quadratic, square root, rational, exponential and logarithmic functions. Students will continue to build on this foundation as they expand their understanding through other mathematical experiences. Prerequisites: Algebra I and Geometry.

 Objectives: Students will be competent in the following areas:

  • Solve equations in function notation
  • Find points of intersection using multiple representations
  • Recognize and work with families of functions to Identify and generate arithmetic and geometric sequences
  • Solve expressions for equivalence
 

HONORS ALGEBRA II: allows students to build on the algebraic skills of Algebra 1. It shows a connection between Algebra and Geometry and illustrates how the tools of one may be used to solve problems in the other. It also extends knowledge to include more extensive data analysis and problem solving which is necessary to be successful in the higher mathematics classes. Prerequisite: Algebra 1, Geometry, and teacher recommendation.

Objectives:

Students will be competent in the following areas:

  • Solve equations in function notation
  • Find points of intersection using multiple representations
  • Recognize and work with families of functions
  • Identify and generate arithmetic and geometric sequences
  • Solve expressions for equivalence
 

MATH MODELS:  Students use algebraic, graphical, and geometric reasoning to recognize patterns and structure, to model information, and to solve problems from various disciplines. Students use mathematical methods to model and solve real-life applied problems involving money, data, chance, patterns, music, design, and science. Students use mathematical models from algebra, geometry, probability, and statistics and connections among these to solve problems from a wide variety of advanced applications in both mathematical and nonmathematical situations. Students use a variety of representations (concrete, pictorial, numerical, symbolic, graphical, and verbal), tools, and technology (including, but not limited to, calculators with graphing capabilities, data collection devices, and computers) to link modelling techniques and purely mathematical concepts and to solve applied problems. Prerequisites: Algebra I, Geometry.
