Welcome! It is my honor to be your Algebra 1 Honors or Geometry Honors teacher this 2016-2017 school year. This year you will be completing a HIGH SCHOOL course and this will be for HIGH SCHOOL credit. It is extremely important that you understand that this will be on your high school transcript when applying for colleges. Therefore, you must complete assignments on time and study for tests to be successful in this course.

HOMEWORK HELP AFTER SCHOOL
This will begin after I return from my 6 week maternity leave. My son is due September 2nd.
The fundamental purpose of this course, Algebra 1 Honors, is to formalize and
extend the mathematics that students learned in MJ1 and/or MJ2. The critical
areas, called units, deepen and extend understanding of linear and exponential
relationships by contrasting them with each other and by applying linear models
to data that exhibit a linear trend, and students engage in methods for
analyzing, solving, and using quadratic functions. The Standards for
Mathematical Practice apply throughout each course and, together with the
content standards, prescribe that students experience mathematics as a
coherent, useful, and logical subject that makes use of their ability to make sense
of problem situations.
Unit 1- Relationships between
Quantities and Reasoning with Equations
Unit 2- Linear and Exponential
Relationships
Unit 3- Descriptive Statistics
Unit 4- Expressions and Equations
Unit 5- Quadratic Functions and
Modeling
