A collection of relevant lessons to supplement your units in Algebra I/II. Mix these lessons into your course to show students the algebraic reasoning behind social issues, public health, the environment, business, sports, and more.

In earlier grades, students define, evaluate, and compare functions and use them to model relationships between quantities. In this module, students extend their study of functions to include function notation and the concepts of domain and range. They explore many examples of functions and their graphs, focusing on the contrast between linear and exponential functions. They interpret functions given graphically, numerically, symbolically, and verbally; translate between representations; and understand the limitations of various representations.

En calificaciones anteriores, los estudiantes definen, evalúan y comparan las funciones y las usan para modelar las relaciones entre las cantidades. En este módulo, los estudiantes extienden su estudio de funciones para incluir la notación de la función y los conceptos de dominio y rango. Exploran muchos ejemplos de funciones y sus gráficos, centrándose en el contraste entre las funciones lineales y exponenciales. Interpretan funciones dadas gráfica, numérica, simbólica y verbalmente; traducir entre representaciones; y comprender las limitaciones de varias representaciones.

This is a complete, full-year Algebra 1 course with tons of interactivity included in every lesson. Some lessons include videos, and all include interactives and newly added inline questions. Inline questions offer instant, per-answer feedback to help you learn by knowing why your answers are correct or incorrect. Every lesson also has specifically chosen 'Related Modalities' that teach the same concept in different ways. Related Modalities may be additional videos, interactives, or study guides (often written by students themselves). You can choose to use the resources directly embedded within the Algebra 1 FlexBook® 2.0 lessons, or learn Algebra your way by using the Related Modalities that are most effective for you!

This project will allow students to grow, develop, and apply the quadratic equation.  They will be able to explain through a table, graphing and solving different quadratic equations.  They will be able to tell what the two zero in a quadratic equations means and solving the problems using elimination, graphing and substitution.  

This task gives students an opportunity to work with exponential functions in a real world context involving continuously compounded interest. They will study how the base of the exponential function impacts its growth rate and use logarithms to solve exponential equations.

This lesson unit is intended to help teachers assess how well students are able to interpret exponential and linear functions and in particular to identify and help students who have the following difficulties: translating between descriptive, algebraic and tabular data, and graphical representation of the functions; recognizing how, and why, a quantity changes per unit intervale; and to achieve these goals students work on simple and compound interest problems.

Interactive Desmos activities that are associated with Units of the Secondary Math II - Mathematics Vision Project (MVP) curriculum.
Teachers will want to create a class code to share with students to monitor student progress as they work through the Desmos activities for each of the lessons.

Students observe multiple examples of capillary action. First they observe the shape of a glass-water meniscus and explain its shape in terms of the adhesive attraction of the water to the glass. Then they study capillary tubes and observe water climbing due to capillary action in the glass tubes. Finally, students experience a real-world application of capillary action by designing and using "capillary siphons" to filter water.

In this task students prove that linear functions grow by equal differences over equal intervals, and that exponential functions grow by equal factors over equal intervals.

The goal of this task is to develop an understanding of why rational exponents are defined as they are (N-RN.1), however it also raises important issues about distinguishing between linear and exponential behavior (F-LE.1c) and it requires students to create an equation to model a context (A-CED.2

This lesson unit is intended to help teachers assess how well students are able to: articulate verbally the relationships between variables arising in everyday contexts; translate between everyday situations and sketch graphs of relationships between variables; interpret algebraic functions in terms of the contexts in which they arise; and reflect on the domains of everyday functions and in particular whether they should be discrete or continuous.

This lesson is an introduction to learning to graph linear equations written in Slope-Intercept Form. It was written for the Beginning Algebra 1 student.

This task gives a variet of real-life contexts which could be modeled by a linear or exponential function. The key distinguishing feature between the two is whether the change by equal factors over equal intervals (exponential functions), or by a constant increase per unit interval (linear functions).

The intent of clarifying statements is to provide additional guidance for educators to communicate the intent of the standard to support the future development of curricular resources and assessments aligned to the 2021 math standards.  Clarifying statements can be in the form of succinct sentences or paragraphs that attend to one of four types of clarifications: (1) Student Experiences; (2) Examples; (3) Boundaries; and (4) Connection to Math Practices.
