I recently posted my algebra 2 scope and sequence. I am also teaching geometry this year, so I figure I might as well post that too. I am using standards based grading. I number my objects as #.# The first number is the unit number and the second number is the objective number within that unit. The first year I did this, I just numbered from about 1 to 120. It made making changes to the list more difficult. Now when I need to add or subtract a topic, I don't need to renumber all of the objectives, just the ones in the same unit.
I would love feedback on this list. Our students take geometry after algebra 1 and 2. The course seems very easy and I feel like I need more rigour in the class. Please share your list on your blog and leave a comment here so I can check it out.

I think your scope and sequence looks great! It looks more like what I used to teach in NY before Common Core, which for some kids was plenty rigorous. I do miss the traditional logic unit that we used to do....I always enjoyed teaching that stuff and I think the kids did too! So many applications to talk about with advertising, persuasion, etc. I also think it's interesting that surface area was completely removed from our curriculum, as my AP Calc kids need to have spent some time on it before they get to me. I think this looks really comprehensive!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the feedback. One thing I noticed was that you have a ton more in terms of constructions. Do you use straightedge and compass? miras? paper folding? computer software like geometer's sketchpad?
