Syllabus for Course 3 Course Description The students will be introduced to, develop and reinforce various mathematical skills and concepts. The NJ CCCS are our primary focus with an emphasis on real numbers, algebra, proportional reasoning, geometry, measurement, probability, statistics, linear and nonlinear functions. We will use a variety of tools to diagnose readiness, check for understanding and assess mastery. Technology will play an integral role in this course. Projected Units / Topics Algebra : Integers Problem solving Absolute Value Add, Subtract, Multiply and Divide Integers Writing Expressions and Equations Algebra: Rational Numbers Fractions and Decimals Compare and Order Numbers Add, Subtract, Multiply and Divide Rational Numbers Solve equations with rational numbers Powers and Exponents Algebra: Real Numbers and the Pythagorean Theorem Square Roots Venn Diagrams Pythagorean Theorem Proportions, Algebra and Geometry Ratios and Rates Rate of Change Slope Proportions Percent Ratios and percents Fractions, decimals and percents Percent of change Simple and compound interest Geometry Lines and Angles Triangles Quadrilaterals Polygons Symmetry, reflections, rotations and translations Geometry: Measuring Area and Volume Parallelograms Triangles Trapezoids Circles Three-Dimensional Figures Surface Area: Prisms. Cylinders, Pyramids and Cones Volume: Prisms. Cylinders, Pyramids and Cones Probability Simple events Counting outcomes Permutations Combinations Compound events Experimental probability Statistics and Matrices Histograms, circle graphs, tables, box-and-whisker plots Measures of Central tendency Measures of variations Algebra: More Equations and Inequalities Simplify expressions Solve 2-step equations Solve equations with variables on both sides Solve inequalities Algebra: Linear Functions Sequences Functions Graphing Scatter plots Algebra: Nonlinear Functions and polynomials Linear and nonlinear functions Quadratic equations polynomilas Primary Resource Glencoe Mathematics: Applications and Concepts Course 3 Major Student Activities Students will be involved in a variety of activities throughout the course which will engage them both intellectually as well as physically. This will be accomplished through various means, including, but not limited to: manipulatives, calculators, computers, graphing calculators, and appropriate websites. Individual work, small group and whole group instruction will offer the students a wide array of learning opportunities to exchange ideas and develop the ability to communicate and reason mathematically. Mathematics will be expanded into, and integrated with, other subjects. Major Evaluation Strategies Assessment is a way of measuring what students should know as well as defining what is important for the students to learn. It is an integral part of the learning process and occurs throughout instruction. A variety of alternative assessment methods are used for student evaluation. Evaluation may include, but are not limited to the following: Technology Teacher observation of students’ performance Teacher and publisher generated tests and quizzes Benchmark Assessments Homework Class participation Projects Demonstrations Explorations Math Journals OnCourse Math Log WIKI Study Island AAA Math Larson website Additional Websites Scientific Calculators Computers
