**Mathematics I: Algebra:**
====This is the first in the sequence of secondary mathematics courses designed to ensure that students are college and work ready. This course requires students to: ====
 * explore the characteristics of basic functions using tables, graphs, and simple algebraic techniques;
 * operate with radical, polynomial, and rational expressions;
 * solve a variety of equations, including quadratic equations with a leading coefficient of one, radical equations, and rational equations;
 * investigate properties of geometric figures in the coordinate plane;
 * use the language of mathematical argument and justification;
 * discover, prove, and apply properties of polygons;
 * utilize counting techniques and determine probability;
 * use summary statistics to compare samples to populations; and
 * explore the variability of data.

**8th Grade Math:**
This course will cover five unit themes, which will help prepare students for high school algebra and the “Common Core.” Unit themes will include Analyzing and Summarizing Data, Equations, Pythagorean Theorem, Rational and Irrational numbers, Linear Functions, and Geometry – Lines and Angles.
