Math

Algebra I Travel around the world and discover the applications of algebra by experiencing field trips, web searches, and labs. The course is a foundation mathematics course for all future mathematics courses! This course meets all NCTM (National Council of Teachers of Mathematics) standards. The emphasis in this course is on honoring God in all we do, learning more about Him through mathematics, and student success by way of varied learning styles using applications, hands- on activities, group interactions, discoveries, and, of course, technology.

Algebra II Experience Algebra II as an employee of a fictitious Functional Consulting Company. A combination of business trips with the application of learned concepts will ensure your rise from Junior Associate to Senior Staff Member. Algebra II is an advanced Algebra course, required for college entry, which meets all the NCTM (National Council of Teachers of Mathematics) Standards. The emphasis in this Algebra II course is on student success by way of varied learning styles using applications, hands-on activities, group interactions, discoveries, and, of course, technology. An integration of faith and mathematical study is embedded throughout the course with the purpose of helping students grow stronger in their Christian faith. Students are challenged to see how mathematic principles reflect God’s qualities, are useful in developing Biblical character, and form the structure of God’s creation.

Geometry Observe the principles of geometry at work in God’s world. Investigate and discover why the Tacoma Narrows Bridge collapsed and the Great Pyramids of Giza did not. Throughout this course, students will actively use their study of geometry to discover more about God, their Christian faith, the mathematical designs God has placed in creation, and the legacy of famous Christian mathematicians. This course will also help students develop geometric relationships and deductive strategies that can be used to solve real-world and mathematical problems. The connection between Geometry and Architecture will be established through active participation and observation of the presence of Geometry in architecture, in both the modern and ancient world. Geometry is a required course for college entry, which meets all NCTM (National Council of Teachers of Mathematics) standards.

Pre-Calculus Students, as mathematic analysts, will investigate advanced mathematics concepts and use them to solve problems encountered in operating national parks. Throughout the course, students will be exploring the mathematical design of God’s creation and how their lives should reflect His glory. The core components of the course include the study of functions and the development of skills necessary for future success in calculus. In addition, a detailed examination of trigonometry and elements of analytical geometry are incorporated in the curriculum.
