COURSE OVERVIEW
Integrated Math 2 Honors is the second course of a three-course sequence including Integrated Math 1, Integrated Math 2, and Integrated Math 3. This course satisfies the California Common Core Standards for Integrated Math 2 Honors. For the Integrated Math 2 Honors course, students continue to develop algebra and geometry skills through engaging and real-life applications. Students will build on the standards they mastered in Integrated Math 1 building on geometry and algebra skills.  Students will demonstrate abilities to reason logically and to understand and apply mathematical processes and concepts using algebraic operations, geometry topics with spatial sense, data analysis and probability. The honors series is designed to help students reach the AP Calculus courses. The purpose of Integrated Math 2 Honors is to develop students’ ability to think mathematically and develop their conceptual understanding of mathematics and procedural fluency in mathematics. Integrated Math 2 Honors will extend the mathematics students learned in Integrated Math 1 and continue the development of concepts in Number and Quantity, Algebra, Functions, Modeling, Geometry, and Statistics and Probability needed for higher level mathematics courses. Extensive use of models/real-world situations, manipulatives, graphs, and diagrams will help students see the connections between different topics, which will promote students' view that mathematics is a set of related topics as opposed to a set of discrete topics. Students will learn to solve problems graphically, numerically, algebraically, and verbally and connections between these representations. Students in this course will learn to use mathematical models to understand real-world events and situations and use algebraic reasoning to manipulate these models for deeper learning.
