This is a comprehensive set of documents for you to use in the classroom for an "Algebra 2" class or in some places known as "Advanced Algebra". I have found this very helpful in my own teaching. I use the numbered assignments and record them on a calendar in the classroom and post each day on google classroom. All class assignments are numbered 1-16 for example. Suggested Pacing: For a standard pacing class this might be about 3 weeks of material. For an accelerated class, I have usually don

This is the summative test for Unit 2. As all my evaluations I break down into 3 parts: Foundational 55% Moderate 36% High Challenge 9% You could weight these sections differently. The idea here is that most students should be pretty close to 100% on the Foundational and the Moderate sections. The High Challenge is separating the A- from the very high A's on the exam. I teach an accelerated section of Algebra 2 so this has been a very effective tool for me. However it can be modified to

This is the Summative assessment ( Chapter test) for Chapter 1: Sequence and Series. I usually break the test down into 3 parts. I weight each section of the test. The high challenge is only 9% of the test. Foundational 55% (These are your most basic concepts which the majority of the class should be mastering by this point) Moderate 36% (Obviously, these require a bit more thinking that just the foundational part but are still very accessible for the majority of the class) High Challenge 9%

This is Sequence and Series Chapter Quiz. It is labeled as Quiz #2. The first quiz I have normally just done more informally. This is a great checkpoint to see where students are at before the Unit Summative which would be in about a week if you are doing the assignments in order.

This is designed to be a mid chapter checkpoint. This quiz covers all of the material from Assignments 1-13

This assignment is really meant to be a comprehensive review of the unit as they prepare for the summative assessment for the unit. There are 3 review assignments. You could do all of them or adjust as you see fit for your classroom. The point here is mastery and making sure they are ready for the summative test.

This is a culminating assignment of the unit...working with functions that students might not be familiar with. The goal is that they can use their skills to graph these functions ( not just by pulling up the picture on Desmos or Ti-84) but rather using some algebraic reasoning of how to find the x intercept and y intercept. Identifying any asymptotes and then figuring out what the graph looks like. For example, they might have to factor out a common term. After they do that, they realize they

This works on analyzing a given function and finding all the critical information. Finding the X and Y intercepts Finding the Domain and range Finding the Max and Min of the function Graphing the function Give the interval when f(x) is increasing or decreasing

This assignment deals with 1) Composition of functions 2) Domain and Range of functions 3) Finding the Max and Min of a function 4) Working to develop the equation to maximize the Volume of an open top box ( we usually construct this from a piece of paper and see which student's box holds the most)...then we look at the math behind it with the equation

Representing translations of functions in 3 ways. Words, general function notation, and specific to the parent function. So being able to look at y=x^2+3 and say the following words: original graph moved up 3 units general notation: y=f(x) +3 specific function notation: y=x^2 + 3 Finding the x and y intercepts of a given function

This assignment deals with evaluating function notation. Most can be done as mental math, but can be used also with entering functions into the TI-84 and using the VARS button to evaluate f(2) for example.

The last 3 assignments in the Unit are #14, #15, and #16 these are all review assignments leading up to the unit test. So you can do as little or as many of them as you would like, depending on how you think your students are doing and how ready they are for the Summative of this unit.
