Ongoing Standards
Note to Teachers: The following ongoing standards will be practiced all year long and embedded into your instruction instead of being taught
in isolation.
WCE.AII.1 Move flexibly between multiple representations (contextual, physical, written, verbal, iconic/pictorial, graphical, tabular, and
symbolic) of non-linear and transcendental functions to solve problems, to model mathematical ideas, and to communicate solution strategies.
A.REI.1 Explain each step in solving a simple equation as following from the equality of numbers asserted at the previous step, starting from the
assumption that the original equation has a solution. Construct a viable argument to justify a solution method.
F.BF.1 Write a function that describes a relationship between two quantities.
WCE.AII.2 Graph a variety of functions identifying the domain, range, x-intercept(s), y-intercept, increasing intervals, decreasing intervals, the
maximums, and minimums of a function by looking at its graph.
WCE.AII.3 Describe the domain and range of functions and articulate restrictions imposed either by the operations or by the contextual situations
which the functions represent.
WCE.AII.4 Multiply polynomials.
