In this document, detailed objectives for the following courses are listed: Algebra I, Algebra II, Geometry, Trigonometry, Analytic Geometry, Advanced Mathematics, Personal Business Mathematics, and Business Mathematics. Each objective is keyed to an expected level of achievement: awareness, knowledge, application, mastery, reinforcement, and…

This text provides a one-semester study of analytic geometry for secondary school students. It is designed for use at the 12th grade level. A deliberate effort was made to tie this text to previous SMSG texts; the usual language of sets, ordered pairs, number properties, etc. are included. This flavor is what distinguishes this book from others in…

This is the teacher's guide to the SMSG text ANALYTIC GEOMETRY. The text is designed to be used as a one-semester course for 12th grade students. Included in this guide are: (1) suggested length of study for each chapter; (2) discussion of each chapter that is in the student text; (3) comments keyed to the pages of the student's text to provide…

This manual was designed for use with the last of five texts in the Secondary School Advanced Mathematics (SSAM) series. Developed for students who have completed the Secondary School Mathematics (SSM) program and wish to continue their studies in mathematics, this series is designed to review, strengthen, and fill gaps in the material covered in…

This nineteenth unit in the SMSG secondary school mathematics series is the teacher's commentary for Unit 17. First, a time allotment for each of the chapters in Units 17 and 18 is given. Then, for each of the chapters in Unit 17, the goals for that chapter are discussed, the mathematics is explained, some teaching suggestions are given, answers…

This manual was designed for use with the fourth of five texts in the Secondary School Advanced Mathematics (SSAM) series. Developed for students who have completed the Secondary School Mathematics (SSM) program and wish to continue their studies in mathematics, this series is designed to review, strengthen, and fill gaps in the material covered…

The Minnesota School Mathematics and Science Teaching (MINNEMAST) Project is characterized by its emphasis on the coordination of mathematics and science in the elementary school curriculum. Units are planned to provide children with activities in which they learn various concepts from both subject areas. Each subject is used to support and…
