Algebra 1 covers Chapters 1-11 in the Big Ideas Algebra 1 textbook. In addition to Big Ideas Math, we will also use the Desmos curriculum.
The course will focus on:
deepening and extending understanding of linear and exponential relationships;
contrasting linear and exponential relationships with each other and engaging in methods for analyzing, solving, and using quadratic functions;
extending the laws of exponents to square and cube roots;
applying linear models to data that exhibit a linear trend.
Math homework will be assigned and checked daily and can be accessed through Google Classroom. You can easily access Big Ideas Math and Google Classroom through the Clever Portal with your school Google account. Desmos activities and assignments will be linked through Google Classroom.
