Unit 1- Overview -Statistics and Data Analysis

During the statistics unit, students will accomplish the following:

  1. Gain understaning in random sampling techniques used by those who survey populations. Students will discover what bias is and how a biased sample can affect the data collected from that given sample.
  2. Calculate measures of central tendency (mean, median, and mode) for a data set and select which measure of central tendency best represents the data.
  3. Recognize how the selection of the scale and interval of a given graph can misrepresent and distort the data.
  4. Organize and display data in various formats including frequency tables.

Unit 2AB - Fraction and Decimal Operations

 

Unit 2 CD - Fraction Operations and Applications

In this unit, students need to add, subtract, multiply and divide fractions and mixed numbers. Answers to given problems must be expressed in simplest form. There are many steps for each type of algorithm; students need to remember the basics to avoid getting confused.

Adding and Subtracting Fractions: The denominators must be the same.

Unit 4 - Functions and Patterns- This unit covers many topics that prepare the students for pre-algebra. Students describe rules for sequences and functions tables. They interpret graphs, master integer operations, and solve one step equations.

Unit 3 - Geometry - In this unit students will explore angles and the special relationships that angles have in intersecting lines and polygons. Students will use protractors to measure angles and also explore indirect ways to measure angles. Later in the unit, students will learn many formulas for calculating the area of a variety of figures including parallelograms, trapezoids, and circles. We look forward to celebrating Pi Day on March 14...
