TDOE: Teaching and Learning: Curriculum: Math

Preface - Organization: The Mathematics Curriculum Standards include the Content Standards, Learning Expectations, and Accomplishments necessary to insure that K-8 Tennessee students develop the mathematics concepts needed to succeed in school, in the workplace, and in their every day lives. The foundation of the curriculum standards includes the five content standards: number and operations, algebra, geometry, measurement, and data analysis and probability. more . . . .

Philosophy

All students are required to complete three units of mathematics. Students are required to complete one of the following: Algebra I, Technical Algebra (formally known as Math for Technology II), or Integrated Math I.

Students who enter high school beginning in 2005-06 will also be required to complete one of the following: Geometry, Technical Geometry, Algebra II, or Integrated Math II as part of the three required units. . .

CTE (Vocational) courses which may be used to meet mathematics requirements for graduation:
Technical Mathematics (formerly Mathematics for Technology I)	3114	-----------
Technical Algebra (formerly Mathematics for Technology II)	3123	-----------
Technical Geometry	TBA	Algebra I or its equivalent
Advanced placement mathematics courses are listed below. Descriptions for these courses may be found in the Advanced Placement Course Descriptions provided by the College Board.
Calculus AB	3127
Calculus BC	3128
Statistics	3129

Students may receive credit for only ONE of the following: Algebra I,Technical Algebra, or Integrated Mathematics I. It is strongly recommended that students who begin in the Traditional Program (Alg I, Geom, Alg II) not move to the integrated program. Transfer students may be an exception to this recommendation. At least one of the three math credits required for graduation must be Algebra I, Technical Algebra, Integrated Math I, or beyond. Competency math and Gateway Algebra are elective credit only courses that cannot serve as units in mathematics required for graduation.
