Course Description: Intermediate Math 2 /ocuses on three critical areas o/ math: "%& 2ormulating and reasoning about e*pressions and e3uations0 including modeling an association in bivariate data ith linear e3uation0 and solving linear e3uations and s!stems o/ linear e3uations4 "2& grasping the concept o/ a /unction and using /unctions to describe 3uantitative relationships4 "5& anal!6ing to( and three(dimensional space and /igures using distance0 angle0 similarit!0 and congruence0 and understanding and appl!ing the P!thagorean 7heorem.
Grading Policies: Homework (30%) 8omeor1 assignments ill be given most da!s and ill ala!s be due at the beginning o/ the /olloing class period.

$erm #6am (49%) Each term ill end ith a /inal test. 7hese tests are comprehensive0 prepare students /or our /inal <.=E testing0 and cannot be reta1en /or a higher score. -o minimum score is re3uired.
:ui;;es (<0%) Most class periods ill begin ith a short 3ui6. Dail! 3ui66es and arm up activities get students thin1ing about math. I/ a student is absent or tard! to class the! ill receive a 6ero on the 3ui6 and ill not be alloed to ma1e it up "i/ absence is e*cused0 then the grade ill be e*cused&.
Participation (40%) Participation is an important part o/ learning. . participation grade ill be given most classes. I/ a student is tard! or unprepared /or class0 the! ma! lose participation points. Participation grades cannot be made up /or a higher score.

*1sences and $ardies: Class attendance is crucial to learning and understanding the material. <tudents are e*pected to be on time and prepared to learn ever! da!.
