Mrs. Buck's letter explaining the pathways.
Instructional time in eighth grade focuses on three critical areas: (1) formulating and reasoning about expressions and equations, including modeling an association in bi-variate data with a linear equation, and solving linear equations and systems of linear equations; (2) grasping the concept of a function and using functions to describe quantitative relationships; (3) analyzing two- and three-dimensional space and figures using distance, angle, similarity, and congruence, and understanding and applying the Pythagorean Theorem.
In layman's terms, this means eighth graders will spend a lot of time working with equations, graphs, and geometric relationships like Pythagorean theorem and angle theorems.
