FactoringPOLYNOMIALS Ryann Kramer EDU 521.02 Prof. R. Moroney Summer 2010 Introduction Factoring is an important, yet difficult concept to grasp and is a building block to many other units in mathematics. This unit is aimed for students to be able to understand the concept of how to factor polynomials. It goes over important strategies that are extremely helpful and beneficial for solving polynomials. Some important strategies that will be covered are using the greatest common factor, difference of two squares, trinomials, trinomial squares, and factoring by grouping. These strategies will also be helpful when solving equations. Context of the Project Subject: Mathematics - Algebra Grade Level: 9th Team Teaching or Collaboration: No Class Size: 25 students Students with Special Needs: 1 Student with ADHD and one student that has visual impairment. Students’ Experience with Technology: Internet, Emailing, Texting, Ipods Class Access to Technology: There is a SMART board, there are a few computers with Internet access in the back of the room, the computer lab in the library, and a personal computer at home Where do the two detailed lessons fit into my unit? The first one is at the beginning and the second one after the first one. Aim of the Project The aim of this unit is to have students be able to understand how to factor polynomials. Throughout the unit, students will learn different strategies that they will use to help them to factor different polynomials and solve many questions. The worksheets, projects and activities will help to assist them to prepare for the exam at the end of the unit. The students will demonstrate the knowledge they learn by watching videos, making PowerPoint presentations, and working in groups to solve problems. Students will be given many problems that will be completed for homework as well. At the end of the unit, students will take an exam in order to test their knowledge about everything we covered in class. Justification I a
