Mar 24, 2016 - Module 2 builds on students’ previous work with units and with functions from Algebra I, and with trigonometric ratios and circles from high school Geometry. The heart of the module is the study of...

Jan 26, 2016 - This topic focuses on factoring polynomials and the advantages of factored form of a polynomial to both solve equations and sketch graphs of polynomial functions.  Students solve problems involving...

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students solve simple exponential equations numerically.

Jan 26, 2016 - In this topic, students develop an understanding of the six basic trigonometric functions as functions of the amount of rotation of a point on the unit circle (F-TF.A.1), and then translate that...

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students transition between verbal, numerical, algebraic, and graphical thinking in analyzing applied polynomial problems.

Jan 26, 2016 - At the beginning of Topic B, students apply the properties of exponents to solve exponential equations numerically (F-BF.1a) as a way to motivate the need for logarithms, which are first introduced...

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students calculate a simple logarithm using the definition.

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students learn to fit polynomial functions to data values.

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students explore the historical context of trigonometry as motion of celestial bodies in a presumed circular arc. Students describe the position of an object along a line of sight in...

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students model a cross-section of a riverbed with a polynomial function and estimate fluid flow with their algebraic model.

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students use logarithm tables to calculate products and quotients of multi-digit numbers without technology. Students understand that logarithms were developed to speed up arithmetic...
