• Algebra 2 CP: 

     

    This course is intended to build upon student work with linear, quadratic, and exponential functions. Students extend their repertoire of functions to include polynomial, rational, and radical functions. Students work closely with the expressions that define the functions, and continue to expand and hone their abilities to model situations and to solve equations, including solving quadratic equations over the set of complex numbers and solving exponential equations using the properties of logarithms. Through the Mathematical Practice Standards students experience mathematics as a coherent, useful, and logical subject that makes use of their ability to make sense of problem situations.

    • Geometry CP: 

      This course is intended to formalize and extend students’ geometric experiences from the middle grades. Students explore more complex geometric situations and deepen their explanations of geometric relationships, moving towards formal mathematical arguments. Students apply transformations in this course to support a deeper understanding of the geometric concepts. This course is the study of the size, shape, and position of figures in space. It consists of the development of an understanding of mathematical proof, the improvement of the quality of thinking in non-mathematical situations, the introduction of the manner in which algebra and geometry complement each other, and the realization of plane and space relationships. Through the Mathematical Practice Standards students experience mathematics as a coherent, useful, and logical subject that makes use of their ability to make sense of problem situations.
