11th Grade Level 1 Understanding Priority Cluster Algebra Target D: Interpret the structure of expressions. Level 1 should be able to identify parts of an expression, such as terms, factors, coefficients, exponents, etc. Target E: expressions in equivalent forms to solve problems. Level 1 students should be able to write a quadratic expression with integer coefficients and a leading coefficient of 1 in an equivalent form by factoring of exponents to expand a single variable (coefficient of 1) with a positive integer exponent into an equivalent form and vice versa, e.g. x3=xxx. Target F: Perform arithmetic operations on polynomials. 1 students should be able to add, subtract and multiply polynomials of degree 2 or less. Target G: Create equations that describe numbers or relationships. Level 1 students should be able to create and use one-step linear equations in one variable to model a familiar situation and to solve a familiar problem. Target H: Understand solving equations as a process of reasoning and explain the reasoning. Level 1 students should be able to explain solution steps for solving one-step linear equations in one variable. Target I: equations and inequalities in one variable. Level 1 students should be able to solve one-step linear equations in one variable. Target J: Represent and solve equations and inequalities graphically. Level 1 students should be able to represent a linear equation with an integer-valued slope in two variables graphically on a coordinate plane. Functions Target K: Understand the concept of a function and use function notations. Level 1 students should be able to distinguish between functions and nonfunctions. They should be able to state the domain and range given a graph.
