Algebra I
About Algebra I
Students completing Algebra I will be able to create equations that describe numbers or model relationships between quantities. Students will solve equations and inequalities and explain the reasoning process in solving. A variety of functions are studied including linear, exponential and quadratic functions. The fundamental purpose of algebra is to be able to apply and create mathematical models to solve real life problems. Students need to complete daily homework to master the concepts of Algebra. (This course meets the New Hampshire state ALGEBRA requirement for graduation.)
Algebra I Competencies
Below are the Algebra I Competencies. These competencies have been created and revised by the Concord High School Math Department. Within each competency, there are learning targets that are topics that the department hopes to teach throughout the course. These are subject to change based on the needs of the students and other unforeseen circumstances that come up throughout the school year.
