Daily Lessons and
Classwork Handouts
and handouts for each unit.
Exploring math models, linear function, inverse variation functions, and introduction to solving inequalities.
Finding the area of irregular shapes; developing, exploring, and using the Pythagorean Theorem; special triangle rules; estimating square roots; and converting repeating decimals to fractions.
Deveolping and using the formulas to find the surface area and volume of three dimensional shapes such as cubes, prisms, spheres, cylinders, cones, and pyramids.
Exponential growth, exponential decay, scientific notation, compound interest, averaging growth and decay factors, percent increase and rate of decay, compound interest, and APY vs. APR.
Exploring parabolas, quadratic functions, equivalent equations (factored form and expanded form), combining like terms, using 2nd differences to identify quadratic tables, and introduction to cubic relationships.
Solving linear, exponential, and quadratic functions symbolically, Identifying and using properties when solving symbolically, and writing equations from models.
Using geometry to support algebraic equations, equations for circles, solving systems of equations, and solving inequalities.
Understanding similarity, corresponding sides and angles, scale factor and ratios, using coordinate rules to stretch and shrink shapes, predicting the effect that stretching or shrinking will have on lengths, angle measures, perimeters, and areas, and using the properties of similarity to calculate distances and heights that can't be directly measured.
