Course Description for Algebra 1A: Students who struggle in Algebra 1 are more likely to struggle in subsequent math courses and experience more adverse outcomes. Algebra 1A is designed to help students who, for many possible reasons, need more support than it is possible to provide in their Algebra 1 course. The intention is that students experience each Extra Support lesson before its associated Algebra 1 lesson. The Extra Support lesson helps students learn or remember a skill or concept that is needed to access and find success with the associated Algebra 1 lesson.
Course Description for Algebra 1: Students build on the descriptive statistics, expressions, and equations, and functions work first encountered in the middle grades while using more formal reasoning and precise language as they think deeper about the mathematics. Students add to the statistical work from the middle grades by working with standard deviation, describing statistical distributions more precisely, and measuring goodness-of-fit with residuals and the correlation coefficient. Students further their work with linear equations and inequalities as they transition from representations tied to tangible objects to working with abstract expressions. Students formalize their concept of a function and encounter exponential and quadratic functions as well as other examples of non-linear functions.
