Students will revisit grade 8 TEKS that they will be
held accountable for on the TAKS test. Student will then
investigate how algebra can be used to express
generalizations and recognize and use the power of
symbols to represent situations. Unit Six will conclude
with radicals, the geometry connection and solving
algebraic proportions.
Critical Questions:
- What are real world examples of inverse variation?
- What is a key strategy when working with radical
equations?
- What restrictions must be recognized when working
with algebraic proportions?
