Algebra 2 Unpacking the Standards - Overview The intent of this document is to unpack each standard in terms of observable and measurable student outcomes (knowledge, skills, and applications). In should be used in conjunction with the South Carolina College and Career Ready Math Standards Support Document. SCCCR A2.AAPR.1* Add, subtract, and multiply polynomials and understand that polynomials are closed under these operations. A2.AAPR.3 Graph polynomials identifying zeros when suitable factorizations are available and indicating end behavior. Write a polynomial function of least degree corresponding to a given graph. (Limit to polynomials with degrees 3 or less.) Unpacking What do these standards mean a child will know and be able to do? Student will be able to ... ○ Extend content from Algebra 1 (linear times linear or linear times quadratic) that includes products of polynomials that are degree 3 or higher and that have rational and integer coefficients. ○ Demonstrate that polynomials are closed under these 3 operations, which means when adding, subtracting, or multiplying two polynomials the result is a polynomial (for example: the integers are closed; 2 X 4 = 8 which is also an integer). ○ Use the distributive property and not mnemonic devices when multiplying polynomials. They should understand that FOIL is the distributive property. ○ (move to Algebra 1) Understand the mathematical definition of a polynomial– an expression that includes one variable raised to whole number powers with coefficients. ○ Show that a polynomial is a base x expression: comparable to a base 10 number (for example: 243 = 2 X 102 + 4 X 101 + 3 X 100 comparable to 2x2 + 4x + 3). Student will be able to ... ○ Graph polynomials of 3rd degree (and lower). ○ Explain with examples the interrelationship of these terms: roots, zeros, xintercepts, and solutions of equations. (All the terms were discussed in Algebra 1.) ○ Explain what happens to “y” as “x” approaches infinity or negative infinity to describe end behavior. ○ Use the information from a graph to write a polynomial function.
