What's Next: Honors Algebra I

In Mathematics 7 Honors students continue the sequence of learning that began in Mathematics 6 Honors. This course incorporates half of the Mathematics 7 content (the half that was not part of the previous course) blended with all of the Mathematics 8 content. Primary focal points include geometric relationships, three–dimensional measurement, functional relationships, and probability.Students must successfully complete Honors Math 6 in order to enroll in Honors Math 7. Students who did not complete Honors Math 6 may reach out to their math teacher and/or counselor in the spring of 6th grade in order to inquire about summer bridge opportunities.

Required Prerequisite(s): Mathematics 7 Honors or Mathematics 8

What's Next: Geometry Honors

Students who have successfully completed the accelerated Honors Math 7 course, or who have earned credit for Math 8, may enroll in high school Algebra I while in middle school. This honors course extends on students' previous learning about algebraic relationships throughout grades 6–8 by expanding their study of linear functions, as well as introducing students to additional functional relationships.The primary focal points in Honors Algebra I include the study of linear, quadratic, and exponential functions and their related transformations, equations, and associated solutions. Students will use a variety of representations (concrete, pictorial, numerical, symbolic, graphical, and verbal), tools, and technology to model mathematical situations to solve meaningful problems. Students will receive high school credit and high school grade points.

Required Prerequisite(s): Algebra I or Algebra I Honors

What's Next: Algebra II or Algebra II Honors

This course includes a more challenging and rigorous study of geometric thinking, symbolic reasoning, and properties of figures. Students in this course will further explore relationships between geometry and other areas of mathematics. Honors Geometry at Vines Academy is available to students who have earned credit for Algebra I or Honors Algebra I and are enrolled in a PISD middle school that does not offer Honors Geometry on campus.Students will receive high school credit and high school grade points.
