Grade 8 PI+ Math

  • Instructional time should focus on three critical areas:

    • formulating and reasoning about expressions and equations, including modeling an association in bivariate data with a linear equation, and solving linear equations and systems of linear equations;
    • grasping the concept of a function and using functions to describe quantitative relationships;
    • analyzing two- and three-dimensional space and figures using distance, angle, similarity, and congruence, and understanding and applying the Pythagorean Theorem
