2011 - 2012 Algebra II : Algebra 2
Instructor: Mr. Robert Caputo   

Algebra II is an extension of the Algebra 1 curriculum. Topics that were first introduced in Algebra 1 will be built upon and applied to problems that require higher order thinking skills. Additional topics will also be introduced in a variety of methods, including self-discovery activities, group project and presentations, and teacher led class discussions. Algebra II builds a foundation of mathematics for those students going on to Pre-Calculus and/or students who are college bound. Along with many colleges, a majority of careers require a successful completion of an Algebra 2 course. Fundamental skills of mathematics will be applied to such topics as functions, equations and inequalities, probability and statistics, logarithmic and exponential relationships, quadratic  and polynomial equations(which include parabolas, higher degree polynomials, and conic sections), and matrices. Technology is routinely used to introduce and expand upon the areas of study listed above. Use of computers and graphing calculators will be incorporated throughout the course. Students are strongly encouraged to have their own graphing calculator.
