Algebra 1

Course Description

Common Core Algebra 1 now adds some of the standards from the former Algebra II class to the former Algebra I standards. This course builds from Math 7 Accelerated. It includes the critical areas from high school Algebra I and content from 8th Grade Mathematics.  Algebra 1 demands a faster pace for instruction and learning.  The students will master the following critical areas: (1) quantities and rates, including simple linear expressions and equations; (2)  interpreting linear and exponential functions given graphically, numerically, symbolically, and verbally; translating between representations; and exploring systems of equations and inequalities; (3) using linear models to describe relationships between quantities and analyzing the appropriateness of linear models; (4) the laws of exponents to include rational exponents, creating and solving equations, inequalities, and systems of equations involving quadratic expressions; (5) solving quadratic equations; graphing of quadratic functions; comparing the key characteristics of quadratic functions to those of linear and exponential; specialized functions to include: absolute value, step functions, and piecewise-defined functions.
