Prove polynomial identities by showing steps and providing reasons.

Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Model identities using manipulatives (i.e., algebra tiles).
  • Order the steps of the problem.
  • Match a step with its rationale.
Representation:
  • Given the steps of an equation, place the steps in the appropriate order.
  • Match a step with its rationale.

Number: MAFS.912.A-APR.3.AP.4b Category: Access Points
Date Adopted or Revised: 06/14 Cluster: Use polynomial identities to solve problems. (Algebra 2 - Additional Cluster)

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.
