algebra 2 honors

Welcome to Algebra 2 Honors

This is going to be a great year!  We are going to learn a lot together; but in order to do that, we all have responsibilities.  As the teacher, I will provide you with a productive learning environment and a variety of educational experiences so that learning can occur.  As the student you have a responsibility to make the most of these experiences by following classroom rules, doing your work on time, and asking questions.  

What will we be learning?

The purpose of this course is to provide intermediate content to students preparing for four-year or technical college experiences.  Most students should have completed Algebra I and Geometry at the Honors level.  The classroom experience will provide opportunities to master concepts including laws of exponents, complex numbers, matrices, relations, functions, and equations (including linear, quadratic, exponential, radical, absolute value, and rational).  It will also direct students to use problem-solving skills, and to apply those skills to real-world situations. Topics studied in Algebra II Honors will take a more in-depth approach to major concepts by studying relationships, analyzing functions, and systems in detail using higher order thinking skills.  More complex analyses of concepts will be a vital part of the course.
