Math 8 MTH800

Grade 8 math will focus on proportionality, expressions, equations, relationships, foundations of functions, and measurement and data. Students use appropriate statistics, representations of data, and reasoning to draw conclusions, evaluate arguments, and make recommendations for problem situations. Students are given opportunities to work with concrete manipulatives, utilize calculators and computer technology, and apply algebraic thinking and problem solving to everyday life. Prerequisite: None

Honors Algebra I MA110A/B

1.0 high school credit, Honors GPA course This course introduces the properties and operations of the real number system as well as the use of algebraic expressions, equations, and inequalities. Students learn to construct graphs of linear, quadratic, and exponential functions and to use graphs and equations to solve problems. Students are given opportunities to work with concrete manipulatives, utilize calculators and computer technology, and apply algebraic thinking and problem solving to everyday life. Students who successfully pass this course should take Honors Geometry. This is a high school level course that earns high school credit. Prerequisite: Honors Math 7 or mastery of 8th grade math TEKS

GT Algebra 1 MA112A/B

1.0 high school credit, Honors GPA course GT Algebra 1 addresses the same skills as those in Honors Algebra 1 but with a differentiated curriculum designed to meet the specific learning needs of identified gifted learners. Students will learn to appreciate the moral, social, and ethical questions arising from the work of mathematicians and the application of mathematics. This is a high school level course that earns high school credit. Students who successfully pass this course should take GT Geometry. Prerequisite: Prosper ISD GT Identification

Honors Geometry MA210A/B

1.0 high school credit, Honors GPA course Geometry is designed to develop an understanding of the basic structure of plane and spatial Euclidean Geometry. Students will develop the ability to analyze geometric relationships, make and verify conjectures, apply logical reasoning to justify and prove mathematical statements, and use a variety of representations to describe geometric relationships and solve problems. Students who successfully pass this course should take Honors Algebra 2. This is a high school level course that earns high school credit. If there is low enrollment in Honors Geometry, the course will be taught at selected middle schools and transportation will be provided. Prerequisite: Algebra 1
