Pilot Algebra II
In this course, students will build understanding of the following modules: Exploring Patterns in Linear and Quadratic Relationships, Analyzing Structure, Developing Structural Similarities, Extending Beyond Polynomials, and Inverting Functions.
Each module is broken up into topics where you will find teacher materials to guide the instruction and the student materials both used in the classroom for learning together and learning individually.
The agency developed these learning resources as a contingency option for school districts during COVID. All resources are optional. Prior to publication, materials go through a rigorous third-party review. Review criteria include TEKS alignment, support for all learners, progress monitoring, implementation supports, and more. Products also are subject to a focus group of Texas educators.
Given broad categories that describe the major goals of the progressive movement and general information about selected issues of the late 1800’s/early 1900’s, students will categorize the issues according to corresponding progressive era goals.
After analyzing primary and secondary resources about the child labor, the students should be able to draw conclusions about the need to reform child labor practices.
Students will describe how Upton Sinclair's The Jungle reflected issues of the Progressive Era.
Given information about Roosevelt’s Square Deal, students will create cause-and-effect diagrams to explain the reasons for and impact of selected reforms sponsored by the Roosevelt administration.
Given background information, students will be able to trace the historical development of the civil rights movement in the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries, and describe the roles of political organizations that promoted civil rights.
Transformations of Absolute Value Functions
Given an absolute value function, the student will analyze the effect on the graph when f(x) is replaced by af(x), f(bx), f(x – c), and f(x) + d for specific positive and negative real values.
Absolute Value Inequalities
This activity provides an opportunity for students to examine how to find solutions to an absolute value inequality.
Formulating and Solving Square Root Equations
This activity provides an opportunity for students to use a square root equation to model a situation and then use the model to make predictions.
Given information about political reforms of the Progressive Era, students will evaluate the impact of those reforms.
Given background information, students will be able to identify and analyze various methods of expanding the right to participate in the democratic process.
Domain and Range: Graphs
Given a function in graph form, identify the domain and range using set notation, interval notation, or a verbal description as appropriate.
Domain and Range: Function Notation
Given a function in function notation form, identify the domain and range using set notation, interval notation, or a verbal description as appropriate.
Domain and Range: Verbal Description
The student will be able to identify and determine reasonable values for the domain and range from any given verbal description.
Domain and Range: Contextual Situations
The student will be able to identify and determine reasonable values for the domain and range from any given contextual situation.
Modeling Data with Linear Functions
Given a scatterplot where a linear function is the best fit, the student will interpret the slope and intercepts, determine an equation using two data points, identify the conditions under which the function is valid, and use the linear model to predict data points.
Formulating Systems of Inequalities
Given a contextual situation, the student will formulate a system of two linear inequalities with two unknowns to model the situation.
Solving Systems of Equations Using Substitution
Given a system of two equations where at least one of the equations is linear, the student will solve the system using the algebraic method of substitution.
Solving Systems of Equations Using Elimination
Given a system of two equations where at least one of the equations is linear, the student will solve the system using the algebraic method of elimination.
Solving Systems of Equations with Three Variables
Given a system of three linear equations, the student will solve the system with a unique solution.
