thePathways Fourmodelcoursepathwaysareincluded:
1. AnapproachtypicallyseenintheU.S.(Traditional)thatconsistsoftwoalgebracoursesandageometrycourse, withsomedata,probabilityandstatisticsincludedineachcourse;
2. Anapproachtypicallyseeninternationally(Integrated)thatconsistsofasequenceofthreecourses,eachof whichincludesnumber,algebra,geometry,probabilityandstatistics;
3. A “compacted” version of the Traditional pathway where no content is omitted, in which students would complete the content of 7th grade, 8th grade, and the High School Algebra I course in grades 7 (Compacted 7th Grade) and 8 (8th Grade Algebra I), which will enable them to reach Calculus or other college level courses by their senior year. While the K-7 CCSS effectively prepare students for algebra in 8th grade, some standards from 8th grade have been placed in the Accelerated 7th Grade course to make the 8th Grade Algebra I course more manageable;
4. A “compacted” version of the Integrated pathway where no content is omitted, in which students would complete the content of 7th grade, 8th grade, and the Mathematics I course in grades 7 (Compacted 7th Grade) and 8 (8th Grade Mathematics I), which will enable them to reach Calculus or other college level courses by their senior year. While the K-7 CCSS effectively prepare students for algebra in 8th grade, some standards from 8th grade have been placed in the Accelerated 7th Grade course to make the 8th Grade Mathematics I course more manageable;
5. Ultimately,allofthesepathwaysareintendedtosignificantlyincreasethecoherenceofhighschoolmathematics.

supportingstudents
One of the hallmarks of the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics is the specification of content that all students must study in order to be college and career ready. This “college and career ready line” is a minimum for all students. However, this does not mean that all students should progress uniformly to that goal. Some students progress
1The study provides evidence that the pathways’ High School Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II sequence is a reasonable and rigorous option for preparing students for college and career. Topics aligned almost completely between the CCSS topics and topics taught in the study classrooms. The starting point for the pathways’ High School Algebra I course is slightly beyond the starting point for the study Algebra I courses due to the existence of many typical Algebra I topics in the 8th grade CCSS, therefore some of the study Algebra II topics are a part of the pathways’ High School Algebra I course, specifically, using the quadratic formula; a bit more with exponential functions including comparing and contrasting linear and exponential growth; and the inclusion of the spread of data sets. The pathways’ Geometry course is very similar to what was done in the study Geometry courses, with the addition of the laws of sines and cosines and the work with conditional probability, plus applications involving completing the square because that topic was part of the pathways’ High School Algebra I course. The pathways’ Algebra II course then matches well with what was done in the study Algebra II courses and continues a bit into what was done in the study Precalculus classrooms, including inverse functions, the behavior of logarithmic and trigonometric functions, and in statistics with the normal distribution, margin of error, and the differences among sample surveys, experiments, and observational studies. All in all, the topics and the order of topics is very comparable between the pathways’ High School Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II sequence and the sequence found in the study courses.

more slowly than others. These students will require additional support, and the following strategies, consistent with Response to Intervention practices, may be helpful:
• Creatingaschool-widecommunityofsupportforstudents;
• Providingstudentsa“mathsupport”classduringtheschoolday;
• After-schooltutoring;
• Extendedclasstime(orblockingofclasses)inmathematics;and
• Additionalinstructionduringthesummer.

• Understandtheconceptofafunction andusefunctionnotation.
Students should experience a variety of types of situations modeled by functions. Detailed analysis of any particular class of functions at this stage is not advised. Students should apply these concepts throughout their future mathematics courses.
Draw examples from linear and exponential functions. In F.IF.3, draw connection to F.BF.2, which requires students to write arithmetic and geometric sequences. Emphasize arithmetic and geometric sequences as examples of linear and exponential functions.
• Interpretfunctionsthatariseinapplicationsintermsofacontext.
For F.IF.4 and 5, focus on linear and exponential functions. For F.IF.6, focus on linear functions and exponential functions whose domain is a subset of the integers. Unit 5 in this course and the Algebra II course address other types of functions.
F.IF.1Understandthatafunctionfromoneset(calledthedomain)to anotherset(calledtherange)assignstoeachelementofthedomain exactlyoneelementoftherange.If f isafunctionand x isanelementof itsdomain,then f(x) denotestheoutputof f correspondingtotheinput x.Thegraphof f isthegraphoftheequation y = f(x).
F.IF.2Usefunctionnotation,evaluatefunctionsforinputsintheir domains,andinterpretstatementsthatusefunctionnotationintermsof acontext.
F.IF.3Recognizethatsequencesarefunctions,sometimesdefined recursively,whosedomainisasubsetoftheintegers. For example, the Fibonacci sequence is defined recursively by f(0) = f(1) = 1, f(n+1) = f(n) + f(n-1) for n ≥ 1.

Focus on quadratic functions; compare with linear and exponential functions studied in Unit 2.
• Analyzefunctionsusingdifferentrepresentations.
For F.IF.7b, compare and contrast absolute value, step and piecewise-defined functions with linear, quadratic, and exponential functions. Highlight issues of domain, range, and usefulness when examining piecewise-defined functions. Note that this unit, and in particular in F.IF.8b, extends the work begun in Unit 2 on exponential functions with integer exponents. For F.IF.9, focus on expanding the types of functions considered to include, linear, exponential, and quadratic.
Extend work with quadratics to include the relationship between coefficients and roots, and that once roots are known, a quadratic equation can be factored.

• Experimentwithtransformationsinthe plane.
Build on student experience with rigid motions from earlier grades. Point out the basis of rigid motions in geometric concepts, e.g., translations move points a specified distance along a line parallel to a specified line; rotations move objects along a circular arc with a specified center through a specified angle.
• Understandcongruenceintermsof rigidmotions.
Rigid motions are at the foundation of the definition of congruence. Students reason from the basic properties of rigid motions (that they preserve distance and angle), which are assumed without proof. Rigid motions and their assumed properties can be used to establish the usual triangle congruence criteria, which can then be used to prove other theorems.

• Provegeometrictheorems.
Encourage multiple ways of writing proofs, such as in narrative paragraphs, using flow diagrams, in two-column format, and using diagrams without words. Students should be encouraged to focus on the validity of the underlying reasoning while exploring a variety of formats for expressing that reasoning. Implementation of G.CO.10 may be extended to include concurrence of perpendicular bisectors and angle bisectors as preparation for G.C.3 in Unit 5.
G.CO.9Provetheoremsaboutlinesandangles. Theorems include: vertical angles are congruent; when a transversal crosses parallel lines, alternate interior angles are congruent and corresponding angles are congruent; points on a perpendicular bisector of a line segment are exactly those equidistant from the segment’s endpoints.
G.CO.10Provetheoremsabouttriangles. Theorems include: measures of interior angles of a triangle sum to 180°; base angles of isosceles triangles are congruent; the segment joining midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and half the length; the medians of a triangle meet at a point.
G.CO.11Provetheoremsaboutparallelograms. Theorems include: opposite sides are congruent, opposite angles are congruent, the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, and conversely, rectangles are parallelograms with congruent diagonals.

Informal arguments for area and volume formulas can make use of the way in which area and volume scale under similarity transformations: when one figure in the plane results from another by applying a similarity transformation with scale factor k, its area is k2 times the area of the first.

The description of modeling as “the process of choosing and using mathematics and statistics to analyze empirical situations, to understand them better, and to make decisions” is at the heart of this unit.

• Createequationsthatdescribenumbersorrelationships.
For A.CED.1, use all available types of functions to create such equations, including root functions, but constrain to simple cases. While functions used in A.CED.2, 3, and 4 will often be linear, exponential, or quadratic the types of problems should draw from more complex situations than those addressed in Algebra I. For example, finding the equation of a line through a given point perpendicular to another line allows one to find the distance from a point to a line. Note that the example given for A.CED.4 applies to earlier instances of this standard, not to the current course.

• Makeinferencesandjustifyconclusionsfromsample surveys,experiments,andobservationalstudies.
In earlier grades, students are introduced to different ways of collecting data and use graphical displays and summary statistics to make comparisons. These ideas are revisited with a focus on how the way in which data is collected determines the scope and nature of the conclusions that can be drawn from that data. The concept of statistical significance is developed informally through simulation as meaning a result that is unlikely to have occurred solely as a result of random selection in sampling or random assignment in an experiment.
For S.IC.4 and 5, focus on the variability of results from experiments—that is, focus on statistics as a way of dealing with, not eliminating, inherent randomness.

• Understandtheconceptofafunction andusefunctionnotation.
Students should experience a variety of types of situations modeled by functions. Detailed analysis of any particular class of function at this stage is not advised. Students should apply these concepts throughout their future mathematics courses.
Draw examples from linear and exponential functions. In F.IF.3, draw connection to F.BF.2, which requires students to write arithmetic and geometric sequences. Emphasize arithmetic and geometric sequences as examples of linear and exponential functions.
F.IF.1Understandthatafunctionfromoneset(calledthedomain)to anotherset(calledtherange)assignstoeachelementofthedomain exactlyoneelementoftherange.If f isafunctionand x isanelementof itsdomain,then f(x) denotestheoutputof f correspondingtotheinput x.Thegraphof f isthegraphoftheequation y = f(x).

• Solveequationsandinequalitiesin A.REI.3Solvelinearequationsandinequalitiesinonevariable,including onevariable. equationswithcoefficientsrepresentedbyletters.
Extend earlier work with solving linear equations to solving linear inequalities in one variable and to solving literal equations that are linear in the variable being solved for. Include simple exponential equations that rely only on application of the laws of exponents, such as 5x = 125 or 2x = 1/16 .
• Solvesystemsofequations.
Build on student experiences graphing and solving systems of linear equations from middle school to focus on justification of the methods used. Include cases where the two equations describe the same line (yielding infinitely many solutions) and cases where two equations describe parallel lines (yielding no solution); connect to GPE.5, which requires students to prove the slope criteria for parallel lines.

• Experimentwithtransformationsinthe plane.
Build on student experience with rigid motions from earlier grades. Point out the basis of rigid motions in geometric concepts, e.g., translations move points a specified distance along a line parallel to a specified line; rotations move objects along a circular arc with a specified center through a specified angle.
• Understandcongruenceintermsof rigidmotions.
Rigid motions are at the foundation of the definition of congruence. Students reason from the basic properties of rigid motions (that they preserve distance and angle), which are assumed without proof. Rigid motions and their assumed properties can be used to establish the usual triangle congruence criteria, which can then be used to prove other theorems.

• Usecoordinatestoprovesimplegeometrictheoremsalgebraically.
This unit has a close connection with the next unit. For example, a curriculum might merge G.GPE.1 and the Unit 5 treatment of G.GPE.4 with the standards in this unit. Reasoning with triangles in this unit is limited to right triangles; e.g., derive the equation for a line through two points using similar right triangles.
Relate work on parallel lines in G.GPE.5 to work on A.REI.5 in Mathematics I involving systems of equations having no solution or infinitely many solutions.
G.GPE.7 provides practice with the distance formula and its connection with the Pythagorean theorem.
G.GPE.4Usecoordinatestoprovesimplegeometrictheorems algebraically. For example, prove or disprove that a figure defined by four given points in the coordinate plane is a rectangle; prove or disprove that the point (1, √3) lies on the circle centered at the origin and containing the point (0, 2).

• Makeinferencesandjustifyconclusionsfromsample surveys,experiments,andobservationalstudies.
In earlier grades, students are introduced to different ways of collecting data and use graphical displays and summary statistics to make comparisons., These ideas are revisited with a focus on how the way in which data is collected determines the scope and nature of the conclusions that can be drawn from that data. The concept of statistical significance is developed informally through simulation as meaning a result that is unlikely to have occurred solely as a result of random selection in sampling or random assignment in an experiment.
For S.IC.4 and 5, focus on the variability of results from experiments—that is, focus on statistics as a way of dealing with, not eliminating, inherent randomness.

• Createequationsthatdescribenumbersorrelationships.
For A.CED.1, use all available types of functions to create such equations, including root functions, but constrain to simple cases. While functions used in A.CED.2, 3, and 4 will often be linear, exponential, or quadratic the types of problems should draw from more complex situations than those addressed in Mathematics I. For example, finding the equation of a line through a given point perpendicular to another line allows one to find the distance from a point to a line. Note that the example given for A.CED.4 applies to earlier instances of this standard, not to the current course.
• Interpretfunctionsthatariseinapplicationsintermsofacontext.
Emphasize the selection of a model function based on behavior of data and context.

• Allowingstudentsinschoolswithblockschedulingtotakeamathematicscourseinbothsemestersofthesame academicyear.
• Offering summer courses that are designed to provide the equivalent experience of a full course in all regards, including attention to the Mathematical Practices.8
• Creating different compaction ratios, including four years of high school content into three years beginning in 9th grade.
• Creating a hybrid Algebra II-Precalculus course that allows students to go straight to Calculus.
A combination of these methods and our suggested compacted sequences would allow for the most mathematically-inclined students to take advanced mathematics courses during their high school career. The compacted sequences begin here:

For example, if a person walks 1/2 mile in each 1/4 hour, compute the unit rate as the complex fraction 1/2 / 1/4 miles per hour, equivalently 2 miles per hour.
7.RP.2 Recognize and represent proportional relationships between quantities.

b. Identifytheconstantofproportionality(unitrate)intables, graphs,equations,diagrams,andverbaldescriptionsofproportionalrelationships.
c. Representproportionalrelationshipsbyequations. For example, if total cost t is proportional to the number n of items purchased at a constant price p, the relationship between the total cost and the number of items can be expressed as t = pn.

For example: If a woman making $25 an hour gets a 10% raise, she will make an additional 1/10 of her salary an hour, or $2.50, for a new salary of $27.50. If you want to place a towel bar 9 3/4 inches long in the center of a door that is 27 1/2 inches wide, you will need to place the bar about 9 inches from each edge; this estimate can be used as a check on the exact computation.

For example: If a woman making $25 an hour gets a 10% raise, she will make an additional 1/10 of her salary an hour, or $2.50, for a new salary of $27.50. If you want to place a towel bar 9 3/4 inches long in the center of a door that is 27 1/2 inches wide, you will need to place the bar about 9 inches from each edge; this estimate can be used as a check on the exact computation.

• Experimentwithtransformationsinthe plane.
Build on student experience with rigid motions from earlier grades. Point out the basis of rigid motions in geometric concepts, e.g., translations move points a specified distance along a line parallel to a specified line; rotations move objects along a circular arc with a specified center through a specified angle.

• Understandcongruenceintermsof rigidmotions.
Rigid motions are at the foundation of the definition of congruence. Students reason from the basic properties of rigid motions (that they preserve distance and angle), which are assumed without proof. Rigid motions and their assumed properties can be used to establish the usual triangle congruence criteria, which can then be used to prove other theorems.
