- Courses teaching this year: Algebra Concepts and Connections, Geometry Concepts & Connections
Algebra Concepts & Connections (information from Georgia Department of Education)
This course is designed as the first course in a three-course series. Students will apply
their algebraic and geometric reasoning skills to make sense of problems involving
algebra, geometry, bivariate data, and statistics. This course focuses on algebraic,
quantitative, geometric, graphical, and statistical reasoning. In this course, students will
continue to enhance their algebraic reasoning skills when analyzing and applying a deep
understanding of linear functions, sums and products of rational and irrational numbers,
systems of linear inequalities, distance, midpoint, slope, area, perimeter, nonlinear
equations and functions, quadratic expressions, equations and functions, exponential
expressions, equations, and functions, and statistical reasoning.
High school course content standards are listed by big ideas including Data and Statistical
Reasoning, Probabilistic Reasoning, Functional and Graphical Reasoning, Patterning
and Algebraic Reasoning, and Geometry Patterning and Spatial Reasoning.
Geometry Concepts & Connections (information from Georgia Department of Education)
This course is designed as the second course in a three-course series. This course
enhances students’ geometric, algebraic, graphical, and probabilistic reasoning skills.
Students will apply their algebraic and geometric reasoning skills to make sense of
problems involving geometry, trigonometry, algebra, probability, and statistics. Students
will continue to enhance their analytical geometry and reasoning skills when analyzing
and applying a deep understanding of polynomial expressions, proofs, constructions, rigid
motions and transformations, similarity, congruence, circles, right triangle trigonometry,
geometric measurement, and conditional probability.
High school course content standards are listed by big ideas including Data and Statistical
Reasoning, Probabilistic Reasoning, Functional and Graphical Reasoning, Patterning
and Algebraic Reasoning, and Geometry Patterning and Spatial Reasoning.
