Resources to support the Mathematics Standards of Learning for Algebra 2
Students will explore the relationship between solutions, factors, and graphs of quadratic functions. They will participate in various activities to develop their understanding and practice.
Students will use IQ data to practice finding and interpreting z-scores.
Exploring asymptotes and discontinuity Mathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the Mathematics Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the knowledge, skills and processes found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom.
In this activity, students use the graphs of quadratic functions and equations to find the zeros or solutions, y-intercepts, and factors. There are 10 equations or functions for the students to match-up.
Exploring Inverse Functions Mathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the Mathematics Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the knowledge, skills and processes found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom.
Students are presented with four linear-quadratic systems of equations and must compare their answers from solving algebraically, looking at a table, and looking at a graph. When the solutions are non-integer solutions, they must explain how the table and graph confirm their algebraic solution.
Students research online data from players from MLB teams in a position of their choice and then use z-scores to compare players within a team of their choice. Students explain how the General Manager of a baseball team could implement this data towards improving the team.
This click and drag activity is a great practice for Algebra II students on multiplying and dividing radical expressions.
Solving nonlinear systems of equationsMathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the Mathematics Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the knowledge, skills and processes found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom.
Analyzing and using the standard normal curve Mathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the Mathematics Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the knowledge, skills and processes found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom.
Students use properties of the normal distribution to practice solving practical problems.
Students will practice performing operations and compositions of functions in this activity where a roll of dice determines the functions and two practice problems for the functions.
Counting using permutation and combinations Mathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the Mathematics Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the knowledge, skills and processes found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom.
Students will sort twelve scenarios into permutations and combinations. Once they have correctly sorted the scenarios, they will solve the problems in the scenarios and learn how to check their work using the Desmos graphing calculator.
Students will use a draggable point to investigate intervals of increase and decrease and then practice writing and fining intervals.

Students will use the discriminant to determine if quadratic equations have 2 imaginary, 2 real, or 1 real solution. They will then practice solving quadratic equations.
Students will see the most common method used for solving rational equations, practice solving, and check their work on graphs.
