Algebra 1 

Real-world problem-solving is approached by seeking mathematical patterns that are generalized through the use of variables, properties, and symbolic notation to create algebraic expressions, formulas, and equations. Manipulation of these expressions, formulas, and equations is the core of Algebra I. Problem-solving is approached through the creation and algebraic manipulation of equations. Graphs, diagrams, and other visual images will be used to provide concrete ways to conceptualize the abstract.
