Integrated Math 1

Honors Prerequisite: Grade B or Higher in Pre-Algebra and Teacher Recommendation 

Integrated Math I is the first course in a 3-year sequence that integrates algebra and geometry topics in the context of real world applications, while deepening numerical manipulation and reasoning skills. Students strengthen their algebra skills, including use of variables, expressions, equations, ratios, proportions, and percentages; they formalize these relationships as functions and graphs, learning to identify and analyze key points. Geometrically, students deepen their understanding of shapes through the study of perimeter, area, and transformations of polygons. Finally, students build on data and statistics primarily through measures of central tendency.
