Integrated Math 1
Course Summary
Use patterns, modeling, and conjectures to build an understanding of and attain competency in mathematics. Develop mathematical skills through collaboration, data collection, experimentation, and conjectures. In this course, students engage in mathematical sense-making, make and test conjectures and justify conclusions, use mathematical models to represent real-world data, learn to provide clear and concise answers, and gain computational and symbolic fluency.
This course is the first of a three-year Integrated Math series.
Course Prerequisite(s):
Students should have successfully completed middle school mathematics through grade 7.
