Course Descriptions
Analysis
Analysis is a full year course that includes the study of functions,techniques to solve higher degree equations and trigonometry.Students will become farmiliar with linear, quadratic, cubic logarithm,trigonometric and exponential functions. Much of the year will also be devoted to the concepts of trigonometry up to and including the laws of sines and cosines.
Algebra 1-8
This course will review rational numbers and solving equations. Systems of equations and quadratics will also be solved.Advanced factoring and exponential techniques are a part of the discovery of the power of Algebra. This is an honors level course for 8th graders who have the ambition of eventually taking AP classes.
Practical Geometry
Using inductive proof and hands-on activities, students will prove and learn the rules of geometric shapes and apply the concepts to real world situations.The many polygons and circle relations will be covered. The difference between similat and congruent triangles is another important concept.
Class Assignments
It is very important to show work.
These assignments are my best plan for the next week's work. Snow days mean that we will push an assignment to the next day.
