Begin (or continue) your study of Algebra. Our Algebra 1 and Geometry curriculums are being offered in a “go at your own pace” format. Using technology and multiple supporting teachers, students will be able to excel at their own rate as they prepare for Algebra 2, SATs, graduation, and beyond.
Based on the proficiencies they have already mastered, each student will learn new skills and improve their problem solving. Motivated students may independently forge ahead. Students who did not gain proficiency in past Algebra classes can target the specific skills they have not yet gained. The class will offer direct small group instruction, independent learning using electronic materials, one-on-one check-ins, and larger group investigations.
PBGR Algebra Indicators and Concepts addressed:
2a. Use equations, inequalities and functions to model and interpret situations.
2b. Reason quantitatively and use units to solve problems.
2c. Evaluate and Simplify Expressions.
2d. Solve equations and inequalities with one variable and be able to explain your reasoning.
2e. Understand what a function is and can graph linear functions and inequalities. (standard form, slope-intercept form, horizontal, and vertical lines)
And More!

Algebra 2 is recommended for students who are interested in post-secondary study. This course is a teacher-paced advanced Algebra class. The main focus is Quadratics. Students will learn to graph quadratic functions and solve quadratic equations. Students will also study polynomial, radical, and exponential functions.

Pre-Calculus is recommended for students who are interested in post-secondary study of mathematics, science and for rigorous colleges. This course uses graphing technology to study problem situations analytically, graphically, and numerically. Algebraic modeling is stressed in the following topics: polynomial and rational functions, exponential and logarithmic functions. Trigonometry (triangles, wave functions and proofs using identities) will be the main topic of the second trimester. The second semester may be taken without the first trimester.

This course is a college course taught at Twinfield. Calculus is the mathematical study of change that has widespread applications in science, engineering, economics and business. This course continues the study of single- variable Calculus begun in MAT 225 / Calc I. Topics include new techniques of integration, including substitution, integration by parts, partial fractions, and integration tables. We will learn how to think about complicated functions as polynomials using series, allowing for straight forward integration and exploring the concept of adding infinite sums. We will also study polar coordinates and how Calculus in used in systems such as radar. This course will encourage students to think beyond memorizing formulas and to work towards understanding concepts. Students may choose to take the course for college credit through SNHU.

This course is a college course taught at Twinfield. It is recommended for students who have successfully completed PreCalculus and who want to stretch their thinking mathematically. Discrete mathematics is the study of mathematical structures that are fundamentally discrete rather than continuous. Topics covered include logic, quantifiers, truth tables, sets and set operations, integers and their properties, counting, relations and digraphs, functions, and applications of matrices. Students may choose to take the course for college credit through SNHU.

Financial lit will introduce issues you will deal with every day! Some areas covered are earning and budgeting money, choosing a credit card, purchasing/owning an automobile, managing loans, the insurance game, taxes, investments and retirement, and other life challenges.
2nd semester Prob and Stats will investigate basic statistical concepts and apply them to real life situations both locally and globally.
Both Financial Literacy and Probability and Statistics can be completed individually online. Ask the math department for details.
