Algebra 2 honors

Algebra 2 Honors is a difficult course for a middle school student. This represents the second high school credit since algebra 1 honors is a pre-requisite.

In Volusia county we structure courses by Florida's Next Generation Sunshine State Standards and associated benchmarks.

We divide the courses by Essential Questions. The Essential Questions are then divided by Measurement Topics which are then outlined with learning targets.

Here are the essential questions:

Can the student identify and graph different forms for the equation of a line? Can the student solve a linear equation or inequality? Can the student solve real world problems using linear functions? Can the student graph linear inequalities? Can the student solve and graph systems of linear equations and inequalities?

Can the student solve and graph absolute value equations? Can the student solve and graph absolute value inequalities? Can the student identify domain and range of absolute value graphs?

Can the student solve quadratic equations using various methods? Can the student identify the real and imaginary parts of complex numbers and perform basic operations? Can the student graph and identify parts of quadratic equations given various forms?

Can the student solve polynomial functions? Can the student graph and describe the characteristics of a polynomial function? Can the student use polynomials to solve real world applications?

Can the student solve radical functions in various forms? Can the student graph and describe the characteristics of a radical function?

Can the student perform operations of functions? Can the student solve problems involving functions and their inverses?

Can the student define, graph, and solve exponential functions? Can the student define, graph, and solve logarithmic functions? Can the student analyze the relationship between exponential and logarithmic functions? Can the student apply exponential and logarithmic functions to solve real world applications?

Can the student solve rational equations? Can the student graph and analyze the characteristics of a rational function including points of discontinuity?

Can the student define and evaluate arithmetic and geometric sequences and series? Can the student analyze arithmetic and geometric sequences and series to find the nth term?

Can the student analyze and differentiate different intersections of a cone and a plane? How can one identify conic sections based on their equations? How does the equation of a conic section relate to its graph? How can one differentiate between ellipses and hyperbolas algebraically and graphically?
