380021/380022 Integrated Math 1
Integrated Math 1 aims to deepen and extend student understanding built in previous courses by focusing on
developing fluency with solving linear equations, inequalities, and systems. These skills are extended to solving simple
exponential equations, exploring linear and exponential functions graphically, numerically, symbolically, and as
sequences, and by using regression techniques to analyze the fit of models to distributions of data.
Prerequisites: None
Grades Taught: 9, 10
Credit: 1

390020 Introduction to Integrated Math 2
This course is intended for students new to Birmingham Public Schools who have successfully completed a traditional
Algebra 1 course. Introduction to Integrated Math 2 will cover topics that were developed in Integrated Math 1 that are
not typically taught in Algebra 1 courses. Topics include modeling bivariate data, sequences, triangle congruence,
coordinate geometry, and exponential functions.
Prerequisites: Algebra 1 outside of BPS
Grades Taught: 9, 10
Credit: .25
380221/380222 Integrated Math 2
Integrated Math 2 aims to formalize and extend the geometry that students have learned in previous courses by
focusing on establishing triangle congruence criteria using rigid motions and building a formal understanding of
similarity based on dilations and proportional reasoning. It also helps students develop the concepts of formal proof,
explore the properties of two- and three-dimensional objects, and work within the rectangular coordinate system to
verify geometric relationships. Integrated Math 2 begins developing concepts around quadratic functions and right
triangle trigonometry. Students also use the language of set theory to compute and interpret probabilities for compound
events, model with functions, and explore circles and solids algebraically and geometrically.

380621/380322 Honors Integrated Math 2
Students will investigate the same standards as regular Integrated Math 2. In Honors Integrated Math 2, these topics are
developed with greater depth, breath, and rigor. A higher degree of mastery and attention to detail will be expected.
Lessons and assessments may include additional questions, investigations, or projects.
