Description
This fourteen (14) week course is the second part of a two part series on advanced concepts in Algebra. The goal of Algebra 2 is to build upon the concepts taught in Algebra 1 and Geometry while adding new concepts to the student’s repertoire of mathematics. Algebra 2 continues the study of linear, quadratic, polynomial and exponential functions and introduces rational, logarithmic and trigonometric relationships. Additional topics covered include matrices, sequences and conic sections. Graphing calculators will be used extensively.
Materials and Homework
Course materials:
Holt McDougal Larson Algebra 2 (2007), ISBN-13: 978-0-618-92393-9 ISBN-10: 0-618-92393-4.
[A link for a FREE version of the Texas edition of the textbook can be found here. The course was designed with the Michigan edition but 99.5% of the problems are identical.]
A TI 83 or 84 Graphing Calculator *(many free apps and web sites can substitute for this)
Homework: Weekly lessons will include prerecorded videos, note sheets, practice problems, and a quiz or test. Homework questions will be assigned from the textbook along with solutions for students to self-check progress. Each unit will have a quiz or test at the end. Students will be expected to watch 3-4 instructional videos, complete daily homework, check their homework and submit it for grading.
