Reading / Language Arts READING Students apply their knowledge of word origins to determine the meaning of new words encountered in reading materials and use those words accurately. trace the etymology of significant terms used in political science and history apply knowledge of Greek, Latin, and Anglo-Saxon roots and affixes to draw inferences concerning the meaning of scientific and mathematical terminology discern the meaning of analogies encountered, analyzing specific comparisons as well as relationships and inferences Students read and understand grade-level-appropriate material, including a wide variety of classic and contemporary literature, magazines, newspapers, online information. They analyze the organizational patterns, arguments, and positions advanced. (Focus on Informational Text). analyze both the features and the rhetorical devices of different types of public documents (e.g., policy statements, speeches, debates, platforms) and the way in which authors use those features and devices analyze the way in which clarity of meaning is affected by the patterns of organization, hierarchical structures, repetition of the main ideas, syntax, and word choice in the text make warranted and reasonable assertions about the author’s argument by using elements of the text to defend and clarify interpretations analyze an author’s implicit and explicit philosophical assumptions and beliefs about a subject critique the power, validity, and truthfulness of arguments set forth in public documents; their appeal to both friendly and hostile audiences; and the extent to which the arguments anticipate and address reader concerns and counterclaims (e.g., appeal to reason, to authority, to pathos and emotion) Students read and respond to historically or culturally significant works of literature that reflect and enhance their studies of history and social science. They conduct in-depth analyses of recurrent patterns and themes. analyze characteristics of sub-genres (e.g., satire, parody, allegory, pastoral) that are used in poetry, prose, plays, novels, short stories, essays, and other basic genres analyze the way in which irony, tone, mood, the author’s style, and the “sound” of language achieve specific rhetorical or aesthetic purposes or both analyze recognized works of American literature representing a variety of genres and traditions analyze the way in which authors through the centuries have used archetypes drawn from myth and tradition in literature, film, political speeches, and religious writings (e.g., how the archetypes of banishment from an ideal world may be used to interpret Shakespeare’s tragedy Macbeth) analyze the clarity and consistency of political assumptions in a selection of literary works or essays on a topic (e.g., suffrage, women’s role in organized labor) (Political Approach) analyze the philosophical arguments presented in literary works to determine whether the authors’ positions have contributed to the quality of each work and the credibility of its characters (Philosophical Approach) WRITTEN AND ORAL ENGLISH LANGUAGE CONVENTIONS: Students write and speak with a command of standard English conventions. demonstrate control of grammar, diction, paragraph and sentence structure, and an understanding of English produce legible work that shows accurate spelling and correct punctuation and capitalization WRITING STRATEGIES: Students write coherent and focused texts that convey a well-defined perspective and tightly-reasoned argument. demonstrate an understanding of the elements of discourse (e.g., purpose, speaker, audience, form) when completing narrative, expository, persuasive, or descriptive writing assignments use point of view, characterization, style (e.g., use of irony), and related elements for specific rhetorical and aesthetic purposes structure ideas and arguments in a sustained, persuasive, and sophisticated way and support them with precise and relevant examples enhance meaning by employing rhetorical devices, including the extended use of parallelism, repetition, and analogy; the incorporation of visual aids (e.g., graphs, tables, pictures); and the issuance of a call for action use language in natural, fresh, and vivid ways to establish a specific tone use systematic strategies to organize and record information (e.g., anecdotal scripting, annotated bibliographies) revise text to highlight individual voice, improve sentence variety and style, and enhance subtlety of meaning and tone in ways that are consistent with the purpose, audience, and genre Students combine the rhetorical strategies of narration, exposition, persuasion, and description to produce texts of at least 1,500 words each. Genres include: fictional, autobiographical, or biographical narratives responses to literature reflective compositions historical investigation reports job applications and résumés

Algebra II Algebra II Students solve equations and inequalities involving absolute value Students solve systems of linear equations and inequalities (in two or three variables) by substitution, with graphs, or with matrices. Students are adept at operations on polynomials, including long division. Students factor polynomials representing the difference of squares, perfect square trinomials, and the sum and difference of two cubes. Students demonstrate knowledge of how real and complex numbers are related both arithmetically and graphically. In particular, they can plot complex numbers as points in the plane. Students add, subtract, multiply, and divide complex numbers. Students add, subtract, multiply, divide, reduce, and evaluate rational expressions with monomial and polynomial denominators and simplify complicated rational expressions, including those with negative exponents in the denominator. Students solve and graph quadratic equations by factoring, completing the square, or using the quadratic formula. Students apply these techniques in solving word problems. They also solve quadratic equations in the complex number system. Students demonstrate and explain the effect that changing a coefficient has on the graph of quadratic functions; that is, students can determine how the graph of a parabola changes as a, b, and c vary in the equation y = a(x-b)^2 + c. Students prove simple laws of logarithms. Students understand the inverse relationship between exponents and logarithms, and use this relationship to solve problems involving logarithms and exponents. Students judge the validity of an argument according to whether the properties of real numbers, exponents, and logarithms have been applied correctly at each step. Students know the laws of fractional exponents, understand exponential functions, and use these functions in problems involving exponential growth and decay. Students determine whether a specific algebraic statement involving rational expressions, radical expressions, or logarithmic or exponential functions is sometimes true, always true, or never true. Students use fundamental counting principles to compute combinations and permutations. Students use combinations and permutations to compute probabilities. Students know the binomial theorem and use it to expand binomial expressions that are raised to positive integer powers. Students derive the summation formulas for arithmetic series and for both finite and infinite geometric series. Probability and Statistics Students know the definition of conditional probability and use it to solve for probabilities in finite sample spaces. Students compute the variance and the standard deviation of a distribution of data.

History ~ United States History: Continuity and Change in the Twentieth Century Students in grade eleven study the major turning points in American history in the twentieth century. Following a review of the nation's beginnings and the impact of the Enlightenment on U.S. democratic ideals, students build upon the tenth grade study of global industrialization to understand the emergence and impact of new technology and a corporate economy, including the social and cultural effects. They trace the change in the ethnic composition of American society; the movement toward equal rights for racial minorities and women; and the role of the United States as a major world power. An emphasis is placed on the expanding role of the federal government and federal courts as well as the continuing tension between the individual and the state. Students consider the major social problems of our time and trace their causes in historical events. They learn that the United States has served as a model for other nations and that the rights and freedoms we enjoy are not accidents, but the results of a defined set of political principles that are not always basic to citizens of other countries. Students understand that our rights under the U.S. Constitution are a precious inheritance that depends on an educated citizenry for their preservation and protection.

Science ~ Chemistry Atomic and Molecular Structure 1. The periodic table displays the elements in increasing atomic number and shows how periodicity of the physical and chemical properties of the elements relates to atomic structure. o Students know how to use the periodic table to identify alkali metals, alkaline earth metals and transition metals, trends in ionization energy, electronegativity, and the relative sizes of ions and atoms. Chemical Bonds 2. Biological, chemical, and physical properties of matter result from the ability of atoms to form bonds from electrostatic forces between electrons and protons and between atoms and molecules. o Students know atoms combine to form molecules by sharing electrons to form covalent or metallic bonds or by exchanging electrons to form ionic bonds. o Students know how to draw Lewis dot structures. Conservation of Matter and Stoichiometry 3. The conservation of atoms in chemical reactions leads to the principle of conservation of matter and the ability to calculate the mass of products and reactants. o Students know how to describe chemical reactions by writing balanced equations. o Students know how to determine the molar mass of a molecule from its chemical formula and a table of atomic masses and how to convert the mass of a molecular substance to moles, number of particles, or volume of gas at standard temperature and pressure. o Students know how to calculate the masses of reactants and products in a chemical reaction from the mass of one of the reactants or products and the relevant atomic masses. Gases and Their Properties 4. The kinetic molecular theory describes the motion of atoms and molecules and explains the properties of gases. o Students know how to apply the gas laws to relations between the pressure, temperature, and volume of any amount of an ideal gas or any mixture of ideal gases. Acids and Bases 5. Acids, bases, and salts are three classes of compounds that form ions in water solutions. o Students know the observable properties of acids, bases, and salt solutions. o Students know how to use the pH scale to characterize acid and base solutions Solutions 6. Solutions are homogenous mixtures of two or more substances. o Students know the definitions of solute and solvent. o Students know how to describe the dissolving process at the molecular level by using the concept of random molecular motion. Chemical Thermodynamics 7. Energy is exchanged or transformed in all chemical reactions and physical changes of matter. o Students know energy is released when a material condenses or freezes and is absorbed when a material evaporates or melts. o Students know how to solve problems involving heat flow and temperature changes, using known values of specific heat and latent heat of phase change. Reaction Rates 8. Chemical reaction rates depend on factors that influence the frequency of collision of reactant molecules. o Students know how reaction rates depend on such factors as concentration, temperature, and pressure. o Students know the role a catalyst plays in increasing the reaction rate. Chemical Equilibrium 9. Chemical equilibrium is a dynamic process at the molecular level. o Students know how to use LeChatelier’s principle to predict the effect of changes in concentration, temperature, and pressure. Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry 10. The bonding characteristics of carbon allow the formation of many different organic molecules of varied sizes, shapes, and chemical properties and provide the biochemical basis of life. o Students know the bonding characteristics of carbon that result in the formation of a large variety of structures ranging from simple hydrocarbons to complex polymers and biological molecules. o Students know amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. Nuclear Processes 11. Nuclear processes are those in which an atomic nucleus changes, including radioactive decay of naturally occuring and human-made isotopes, nuclear fission, and nuclear fusion. Investigation & Experimentation 1. Scientific progress is made by asking meaningful questions and conducting careful investigations. As a basis for understanding this concept and addressing the content in the other strands, students should develop their own questions and perform investigations.
