Mathematics Grade 8

In this course, students begin with transformational geometry, rigid transformations and congruence, and dilations and similarity. They express linear relationships using equations, tables, and graphs, and make connections among and across these representations. Building on their understanding of a solution to an equation in one or two variables, they develop an understanding of what is meant by a solution to a system of equations in two variables, apply their understanding of linear relationships and functions to contexts involving data with variability, and extend the definition of exponents to include all integers. Lastly, students learn about orders of magnitude and scientific notation, encounter irrational numbers for the first time, and informally extend the rational number system to the real number system—motivated by their work with the Pythagorean Theorem.
