8th Grade Mathematics
Students are expected to work in groups or partners. While they do this, they will have discussions on how they learn and why the answer is right or wrong. They will learn from each and work collaboratively.
MATH COURSES:
Connected Math (CMP): Throughout the year, we will explore many different concepts. In the fall, we will take a look at functions, finding the equation of a line, inequalities, square roots, Pythagorean Theorem, slope, distance and area. We also will look at recognizing exponential growth and decay in tables and graphs. We will explore rules of exponents and scientific notation.
---------------------------------------------------------
Integrated Mathematics 1 (IM1): IM is an honors Math course. This fall, we will organize single variable data and represent it using visual displays, understand the measures of central tendencies, identify patterns, write and evaluate algebraic expressions and equations, and understand ratios.
