  4. Back to flow chart Algebra l Grade: 9-12 MA1A1A / MA1A1B Credit: 1 The focus of Algebra l is to develop in the ability to work with linear functions and quadratic functions. The student will use these functions to develop relationships among the different types of functions and to understand the attributes of the function. The student will analyze functions graphically, verbally, numerically, and symbolically. Included in the Algebra course is a study of the attributes and properties of polynomials, exponents, irrational numbers, inequalities, and square roots and their connection to functions. The use of the graphing calculator is a major component in the teaching of this course. • Required course for all diploma plans, distinguished, recommended and minimum • Offered as a credit recovery course only

  5. Algebra l Pre-AP /IB Grade: 8-9 Credit: 1 Back to flow chart • This course is not offered at AHS. Allen High School students have taken this course in 8th or 9thgrade.

  6. Geometry Grade: 9-12 MA1GEA / MA1GEB Credit: 1 Prerequisite: Algebra l Geometry is designed to develop an understanding of the basic structure of plane and spatial geometry. Students will develop the ability to analyze geometric relationships, make and verify conjectures, apply logical reasoning to justify and prove mathematical statements, and use a variety of representations to describe geometric relationships and solve problems. This course allows students to apply algebraic skills in a logical and concrete manner. Back to flow chart • Required course for distinguished and recommended diploma plans • See Geometry Pre-AP/IB slide before deciding which course is right for you.

  7. Geometry Pre-AP/IB Grade: 9-12 MA2GEA / MA2GEB Credit: 1 Prerequisite: Algebra l This course takes all of the goals of the regular Geometry course and further explores the content with an emphasis on problem solving in a multi-step format. Strategies and testing using the AP and IB formats are alternated with the intent of preparing students to enter our AP upper mathematics program or our IB program of mathematics. The student must abide by AHS registration and drop policies. Back to flow chart • Geometry (on-level or Pre-AP/IB) is a required course for distinguished and recommended diploma plans. • Pre-AP/IB places a greater emphasis on problem solving and proofs than on-level • Students choosing Geometry Pre-AP/IB should have a strong work ethic, be motivated, able to transfer previously learned material and willing to ask for help. Strong Algebra skills are highly recommended. • Based on a 4.5 weighted GPA

  8. Back to flow chart Mathematical Models with Applications Grade: 10-11 MA1MOA / MA1MOB Credit: 1 Prerequisite: Algebra I and Geometry MMA continues the study of concepts examined in Algebra l and Geometry. Students will expand their understanding of graphical and geometric reasoning through real world applications. Math Models strengthens skills/concepts from Algebra l/Geometry to prepare students for Algebra ll.In order for this course to count as one of the four math credits required by the State, both semesters must be successfully completed and the credit earned before Algebra II may be taken. • Meant to strengthen concepts learned in Algebra I and geometry • MUST be taken prior to Algebra II • Approximately one-third of the course will be spent covering consumer math topics.

  9. Algebra llGrade: 10-12 MA1A2A / MA1A2B Credit: 1 Prerequisite: Algebra l and Geometry This course allows students to continue their study of algebraic concepts that began in Algebra I and applied in Geometry in order to better understand the connections between them with the purpose of understanding the structure of Algebra and its connections to Geometry. The study of functions, equations and their relationships is central to all of mathematics and further pursued in this course. Students continually use problem-solving, language and communication, and reasoning to make these connections within and outside of mathematics. Back to flow chart • Required course for distinguished and recommended diploma plans • See Algebra II Pre-AP/IB slide before deciding which course is right for you • Students who did well in Algebra 1 tend to be successful in this course. Your grade in Geometry does not have a direct correlation to predict success.

  10. Algebra ll Pre-AP/IB Grade: 9-12 MA2A2A / MA2A2B Credit: 1 Prerequisite: Algebra l and Geometry Algebra llPAP/IB covers the same topics as Algebra ll with an increased emphasis on complex problems, applications,and higher level thinking skills. The content goes deeper into understanding each of the topics and being able to apply and justify in a multi-step format. The student must abide by AHS registration and drop policies. Back to flow chart • Algebra II (on-level or Pre-AP/IB) is a required course for distinguished and recommended diploma plans. • Students who did very well in Algebra 1 tend to be successful in this course. Your grade in Geometry does not have a direct correlation to predict success. • Students choosing Algebra II Pre-AP/IB should have a strong work ethic, be motivated, able to transfer previously learned material and willing to ask for help. • Based on a 4.5 weighted GPA Click here to see Problems I should be able to Solve with little or no review

Students learn to become critical consumers of real-world quantitative data, developing critical skills for success in college and future careers. • Main focus of course will be on statistics • Project and experiment based • Great alternative for students looking for a 4th year of math that is not based solely on algebra

  22. IB Math Studies Grade: 11-12 MA4MSA / MA4MSB Credit: 1 Prerequisite: Algebra 1, Geometry, and Algebra II The math Studies SL course gives a sampling of several math topics that are offered in college. These include, but are not limited to, the history of mathematics, trigonometry, statistics, number theory, and calculus,. The course is offered to students with varied backgrounds and abilities. It is designed to build confidence and encourage an appreciation of mathematics in students, some of whom do not anticipate a need for mathematics in their future studies. The key objective of this course is to introduce students to mathematical concepts and principles through the development of various techniques, allowing for the possibilities of the practical and real-world application of the subject. Assessments will include the following items: class work exercises, homework assignments, quizzes, exams, class projects, midterm and final exams. A key component of the mathematics studies course will be the IB project, in which the student will produce a piece of written work based on personal research that is guided and supervised by the teacher and cumulative written exam. Back to flow chart • One year math course based on a 5.0 GPA • Will fulfill the math component needed for IB diploma; however, the course is open to all seniors that have completed Algebra II. (Juniors must be full IB diploma candidates.) • Full IB candidates must complete the IB project and 2 external cumulative assessments • The workload and commitment for this course will be the same as other IB courses
