Algebra I (Tolliver)
Assigned Faculty: TALISHA TOLLIVER
Course Description:
The big idea for this course is for students to learn to communicate some basic mathematics concepts (primarily an introduction to functions) to one-another, as well as their K-8 peers who might be in lower levels of math (younger siblings, take head!). There is much language development embedded in Common Core Algebra, as well as important 21st century skills identified by the National Center for Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) as the following:
SUMMARY OF MATHEMATICAL PRACTICES
1. Make sense of problems and in solving them.
2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively. persevere
3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.
4. Model with mathematics.
5. Use appropriate tools strategically.
6. Attend to precision.
7. Look for and make use of structure.
8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
