Prerequisite : Arizona Mathematics Standards for eighth grade graduation.
This is the first of two courses that, in part, comply with the Arizona Mathematics Standards document mandated and published by the Arizona Department of Education. Students are taught the concepts of algebra, basic probability, and beginning statistics and data analysis. The student will be required to demonstrate knowledge of these skills and their application within and without the field of mathematics. Mathematical literacy will be addressed through a comprehensive reading and writing component.
Prerequisites : Mastery of the Arizona Mathematics Standards for eighth grade graduation and successful completion of a beginning algebra course (Math 1-2).
This course is designed to study the Math 1-2 and Math 3-4 curriculum in more depth and with greater rigor. Upon successful completion, students are awarded two credits, one for Math 1-2 and one for Math 3-4. The student will be required to demonstrate knowledge of these skills and their application within and without the field of mathematics. Mathematical literacy will be addressed through a comprehensive reading and writing component.
Prerequisite : Mastery of all Math 1-2 course outcomes.
This is the second of two courses that, upon completion, satisfy the requirements as set forth in the Arizona Mathematics Standards document. Students are taught the concepts and applications of geometry, some beginning trigonometry, and beginning geometric probability. The student will be required to demonstrate knowledge of these skills and their application within and without the field of mathematics. Mathematical literacy will be addressed through a comprehensive reading and writing component. Successful completion of the Math 1-2 and Math 3-4 courses fulfills the Arizona Board of Regents Mathematics competency requirements. Additional requirements must be met to enter Arizona universities and for the endorsement.
Prerequisite : Math 3-4
This course is a continuation of the algebra and related topics found in Math 3-4. It is one of the "Additional Courses Required for University Admission," as specified by the Board of Regents, and is required for the endorsement. Outcomes for this course describe the skills and concepts which include, exponentiation, logarithms, sequences, trigonometry and other topics normally found in an Intermediate Algebra course at most colleges and universities.
Prerequisites : Accelerated Math 1-4 or Math 3-4 with teacher recommendation
In addition to topics included in Math 5-6, this course includes the study of circular functions and extended topics in trigonometry.
Prerequisite : Math 5-6
This course also attends to the entrance requirements for Arizona universities, and is required for the endorsement. It includes topics traditionally included in a College Algebra course, which are, among others, algebra, trigonometry, analytic geometry, functions, matrices, circular and logarithmic functions. This course provides the necessary instruction for a smooth transition to Calculus.
Prerequisites : Accelerated Math 5-6 or Math 5-6 with teacher recommendation
This course is a college preparatory course for those students who plan to take Calculus. This course covers all the Pre-Calculus topics in more depth and with greater rigor, as well as additional topics. Like the regular Pre-Calculus class, this meets the entrance requirements for Arizona universities.
Prerequisite : Pre-Calculus or Accelerated Pre-Calculus
Prerequisite: Math 5-6 (or Pre-Calculus)
This course combines data exploration, hands-on activities and the power of the graphing calculator to allow students to investigate real-world problems and situations. The explorations lead to the development of the math concepts, which include topics traditionally included in a College Algebra course, such as, Sequences, Functions, Systems of Equations Polynomials, Exponential and Logarithmic Functions, and Trigonometry. This course also includes important discrete math topics, such as Data Analysis, Recursion, and Matrices, which are not included in traditional courses. The course satisfies the Board of Regents requirements for university admission, as the fourth year of mathematics.
Prerequisite : Mastery of all Math 1-2 and Math 3-4 outcomes.
This course is required of all juniors and seniors who have successfully completed the “core” courses of Math 1-2 and Math 3-4 but have not yet passed the math portion of AIMS, the state-mandated test. It presents a review of algebra and geometry concepts and their applications in the real world. Credit does not meet college entrance requirements, or the requirements for the endorsement.
