This product is a project-based curriculum, focusing on Algebra I content. The curriculum is aligned with the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) and consists of 15 projects that cover at least one CCSS. However, the curriculum allows for individualized and differentiated instruction, where the teacher can assign project(s) and/or part(s) of a project to individuals or groups of students as he or she sees fit. This is a curriculum, teachers can use, to support learning and behavioral concerns for students who need differentiation, individualized instruction, and group work, that consist of hands-on activities that will increase engagement, motivation, and retention. Within this Project-Based Curriculum, students will have the autonomy to work in groups, individually, or in pairs to complete each project, then will have to create and present a deliverable to demonstrate mastery of the intended standards. The overall purpose of this curriculum is to improve student academic achievement in Algebra I and to provide the foundation for future success by creating a student-centered culture. The curriculum is aligned with the CCSS, to ensure students are prepared and successful when taking any Standardized Test. If fact, to further help students prepare for any Standardized Tests, there are seven formal tests, in the Test Booklet, to guarantee students are mastering the new content. The Test Booklet is sold separately. The assessments in the Test Booklet have open-ended questions which will evaluate the student's knowledge and evaluate their mastery of the Algebra I CCSS.
