MS Math

This course addresses the Washington State Learning Standards for Mathematics by developing students' abilities to problem solve, reason, and communicate like mathematicians through the Standards for Mathematical Practice and focusing deeply on the Grade 8 Standards for Mathematical Content.

In 8th Grade, instructional time should focus on four critical areas: (1) deepening knowledge of the number system to include irrational numbers and rational approximations; (2) expressions and equations work with radicals and integer exponents along with proportional relationships, linear equations and systems of equations; (3) evaluation, comparison, and modeling of functions, and (4) geometry, including congruency, similarity, cylinders, cones, spheres, and the Pythagorean Theorem.

This course is a first year algebra course that covers the content of the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics. Highlights of the course include:

• Number & Quantity
• Expressions, Equations and Inequalities
• Functions
• Statistics

This course also addresses select 8th grade standards where appropriate to minimize gaps in the accelerated course sequence. Qualifying students may receive HS credit with parent request. This course qualifies for high school credit. See your school counselor

This course addresses the Washington State Learning Standards for Mathematics by developing students' abilities to problem solve, reason, and communicate like mathematicians through the Standards for Mathematical Practice and focusing deeply on the Grade 6 and selected Grade 7 Standards for Mathematical Content. The goal of this course is to prepare students for possible entry into 7th Grade Algebra. Students who qualify for gifted services are placed in this course.

Math Learning strategies is designed to be a second math class where students who struggle with mathematics can get additional help. Teachers strengthen student understanding through skill-building, pre-teaching, and re-teaching. Topics covered in the class will vary depending on the needs of the students.
