The New TEKS
A.b.3Students will study linear, quadratic, and exponential functions and their related transformations, equations, and associated solutions.

The New TEKS
A.b.3Students will use technology to collect and explore data and analyze statistical relationships.

The New TEKS
A.b.3Students will study polynomials of degree one and two, radical expressions, sequences, and laws of exponents. Students will generate and solve linear systems with two equations and two variables and will create new functions through transformations.

The New TEKS
A.c.3Linear Functions, Equations, InequalitiesThe student will determine the effects on the graph of the parent function f(x) = x when f(x) is replaced byaf(x), f(x) + d , f(x - c), f(bx) for specific values of a, b, c, and d

Math is Figure-out-able
•Give kids a chance to build intuition
•It’s about relationships:
- Between what you know and the new, build to the new
- Between teachers and students to build young mathematicians
