Integrated Mathematics I Description Course Overview
Welcome to eSTEM Academy! This semester I will challenge you to explore and inquire. I will
guide you through difficult problems that demand perseverance and creativity. We will cover a
variety of mathematical topics in algebra, geometry, and probability. While exploring these topics,
we will focus on the themes of strategic problem solving and creative thinking. My hope for this
course is that you will learn both valuable mathematics and valuable skills which will prove useful
to you in many areas of your life. If you put in your hardest work and believe that you are capable
of learning, you will leave my classroom not only as a better mathematician, but also as a better
thinker.
Habits of Mind
During a typical class session, you will work collaboratively in groups with three or four of your
classmates. It will be important that you clearly communicate your ideas to your group. You will
work through challenging problems that will require you to be persistent and flexible--you will
often need to try many different approaches and not give up even when you feel stuck. Many
problems will also require creative problem solving and risk taking--you will need to come up
with and try new ways of solving a problem, even if you are not sure if they will work.
Classroom Expectations
• Present: You are in your seat when the class begins, with all necessary materials (pencil,
calculator, necessary notes, etc.). Focus on learning, which means no distractions are on/out. Note
on cell phones: you are expected to have electronics stowed and off during class. Students caught
on their phones on a first offense will have 30 seconds to put them away, and if caught a second
time must put them in distractions jail on my desk for the remainder of the class.
• Kind: Remember that all of your classmates and your teacher are fellow humans, make
sure to treat them with respect and kindness. Don’t interrupt the learning of others. Follow
instructions.
• Honest: Present your own work. Be willing to express respectfully when you’re confused.
Ask questions in an effort to understand. Give a genuine effort.

Homework Policy
You will receive homework most days, and is considered incomplete if work is not shown (on paper assignments). Homework is
10% of your grade, and completing it is strongly correlated with higher test grades and overall grades.
▪ Completed homework turned in by the due date can receive up to full credit and will be returned with time to review before the
next quiz. Missing or incomplete homework will result in a 0%
▪ Late or redone homework can be turned in within one week of due date. The last day I will accept homework is labeled on the
paper assignments.
▪ Turn in homework at the bin for your block in the back of the room.
▪ If you are absent or lose your homework, assignments can be found at mshubermath.weebly.com – either print the homework
page or do the assignment on loose leaf paper, making sure to write the assignment title on the paper.
Grading System
• • Assigned • % of Quarter Grade
• Homework/Practice Assignments • ~3 a week • 10
• Check for Understanding • ~4 a week • 0 - Graded to check understanding only
• Unit Tests
• Topic Quizzes
• ~3-4 a quarter
• ~1 a week
• 90
•
• Total • • 100
Midterms and Finals
Your midterm and final test will each account for 10% of your course grade. The other 80% of your grade for the course comes from
your two quarter grades.
Retakes
Every student has the option to retake tests and quizzes. If you would like to do a retake, you must turn the test back in within two
weeks of receiving it graded, with the appropriate section filled in to schedule the retake time. Up to half of the points missed can be
made up by retaking. Flex or Office Hours are the two times you will have to retake assignments.
Weighted vs. Unweighted
If you choose to take this as a weighted course, you will be given a list of interesting math related theorems and topics. You will be
required to create two assignments and presentations surrounding your two selections from these topics.
Tardy Policy
Students who enter the room after class begins will follow the following sequence:
• 1st offense: verbal warning to student, logged in system
• 2nd offense: verbal warning to student, logged in system, parent call
• 3rd offense: parent call, logged in system, one after school detention
• 4th offense: parent call, logged it system, two after school detentions
• 5th offense: logged in system, consequence determined by administrative team
6
Before you enter Class • Stow (put in pocket, backpack, etc) your smart device. If it is seen out in class and
I give you “the look” put it away. If I have to do this twice, you’ll need to turn in
your smart device in the blue distractions bin. You can grab it as you leave class.
• Other things that go in the blue distractions bin after a second correction:
anything that will cause others or yourself to be distracted:
Examples: fidget spinners, rubber bands, etc.
• Consequence for not putting distractions in the bin: parent call and after-school
detention assigned.
• Make sure you have your materials: pencil, calculator ( TI-84 and edition),
KEEP SHEETS. Occasionally packets will be used for multiple days. In those cases,
you need to have those packets with you as well.
Starting class • As you enter, grab any materials sitting on the edge of the kidney table
• Once seated, begin working on the Do Now. I will have a timer and once it beeps
we will read the AIM, review the agenda, and go over the Do Now.
• WWBAT stands for we will be able to
Daily Class Set-Up
• Our school promotes problem-based learning
• This means, our class will mostly start with a real-world situation which we will
analyze. In my class, often this will include working in pairs and think/pair/share and
group work in threes or fours.
• After working through the problem in these groups, we will come back together to
synthesize what we’ve learned.
• Many days we will end with a check for understanding. I will not put these in the
gradebook the majority of the time, because they are formative (vs. summative)
assessments to see how we are doing. If they are entered in the gradebook, they
count as an assessment grade
7
Practice Assignments • Practice assignments (homework) are worth 10% of your grade.
• Even though practice assignments are only 10%, having them done and checked is
strongly correlated with higher assessment scores.
• Turn in homework to the correct bin for your block
• I will always grade the practice I assign: I will never assign something that is just “busy
work”
• I will grade any assignment until the “accepted until” date, which is always one week
after the original due date.
• When graded, you will receive them back the next class. If you would like to resubmit,
just check the “is this a resubmit?” line and turn back in after making corrections. You
may do this once on most assignments.
• Homeworks will always be the last page(s) of the packet so you can tear them off
Website • MsHuberMath.weebly.com
• We reviewed the website last week, but remember that this website will have all
assignments and notes under the Math 1 tab
• If you are doing an assignment from the website (and you can’t print it), you MUST
write the title of the assignment at the top of the page. I cannot grade it otherwise
Cheating • Any assignment in which I have clear evidence of cheating will result in an after-school
detention, receiving a zero on the assignment and no possibility of retaking the test or
redoing the practice
• Cheating is obvious: showing your work and both making the same obvious mistake,
one student copying something wrong which makes no sense, trying to make a small
change in wording and thinking that is no longer cheating. I assigned 40 zeros and
detentions last year due to students cheating on practice. If you cheat or let a
classmate borrow your assignment to cheat, you will both have a parent call and be
assigned a detention.
• Multiple cheating offenses can result in suspension
• Only exception to both parties receiving the consequence: if one student is clearly
unaware of the cheating (someone looking at their paper during a test without their
knowledge), or if one student comes forth before they are caught.

✓ WWBAT use expressions to make predictions
Identifying patterns at Yellowstone
Ms. Huber loves to travel, and a couple in 2016 she
went on a road trip west to visit various National Parks,
including Yellowstone. Yellowstone is famous for its
geysers, especially one commonly referred to as Old
Faithful. A geyser is a spring that erupts intermittently,
forcing a fountain of water and steam from a hole in
the ground.
Old Faithful can have
particularly long and fairly
predictable eruptions. As a
matter of fact, park rangers
have observed the geyser over many years and have developed
patterns they use to predict the timing of the next eruption. Park
rangers have recorded the information in the table below.
1. Describe any patterns you see in the table.
Answers will vary. EX: for every one minute added to the eruption length, there are 12 minutes added
To the time until next eruption.
2. Why might it be important for park rangers to be able to predict the timing of Old
Faithful’s eruptions?
Answers will vary. EX: to control the crowd, for visitor safety.

3. If an eruption lasts 8 minutes, about how long must park visitors wait to see the next
eruption? Explain your reasoning using the patterns you identified in the table.
130 minutes. Reasoning will vary, EX: 46+12(7)
4. Graph the data below.
5. Reason quantitatively. Ms. Huber arrived at Old Faithful to find a sign indicating they had
just missed an eruption and that it would be approximately 2 hours before the next one.
How long was the eruption they missed? Explain how you determined your answer.
About 7 minutes; 2 hours is 120 minutes; 46 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 = 118 minutes. 118 minutes is very close to 120
minutes. Students may also extend the table from Item 1.
Patterns can be written as sequences.
6. Using the table or graph above, write the approximate times
until the next Old Faithful eruption as a sequence.
46, 58, 70, 82, …
10
7. How would you describe this sequence of numbers?
Answers will vary. It starts at 46 and then each subsequent term increases by 12.
In the table below, 5 and 8 are consecutive terms. Some sequences have a common
difference between consecutive terms. The common difference between the terms in the
table below is 3.
Sequence: 5, 8, 11, 14…
8. Identify two consecutive terms in the sequence of next eruption time that you created in
Item 6.
Answers will vary. 70 and 82
9. The sequence of next eruption times has a common difference. Identify the common
difference.
12 minutes
11
10. Each term in the sequence above can be written using the first term and repeated
addition of the common difference. For example, the first term is 5, the second term is
5 + 3, and the third term can be expressed as 5 + 3 + 3 or 5 + 2(3). Similarly, the terms
in the sequence of next eruption times can also be written using repeated addition of
the common difference.
a. Write the approximate waiting time for the next eruption after eruptions lasting 4
and 5 minutes using repeated addition of the common difference.
4 minutes: 46 + 12 + 12 + 12 or 46 + 12(3)
5 minutes: 46 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 or 46 + 12(4)
b. Model with mathematics. Let 𝑛 represent the number
of minutes an eruption lasts. Write an expression using
the variable 𝑛 that could be used to determine the
waiting time until the next eruption.
46 + 12(n − 1)
c. Check the accuracy of your expression by evaluating it when 𝑛 = 2.
58
d. Use your expression to determine the number of minutes a visitor to the park must
wait to see another eruption of Old Faithful after a 12-minute eruption.
178 minutes

12. Graph the data from the table. Be sure to label your axes.
13. Write a sequence to represent the total price of a data plan.
20, 40, 60, 80, …
14. The sequence you wrote in Item 13 has a common difference. Identify the common
difference.

Patterns at Mesa Verde
Ms. Huber also visited Mesa Verde National
Park in Colorado. As she investigated the
artifacts on display from the ancestral
Pueblo people who once called the area
home, she began to notice that the
patterns used to decorate pottery, baskets,
and textiles were geometric. She found a
pattern similar to
the one below
particularly
interesting.
1. Reason abstractly. Draw the next two figures in the pattern.
2. Create a table showing the relationship between the figure number and
the number of small squares in each figure.
15
3. Use the variable 𝑛 to represent the figure number. Write an expression that could be
used to determine the number of small squares in any figure number.
4. Use your expression to determine the number of small squares in the 12th figure.
Ms. Huber noticed that many times the centers of the figures in the pattern were filled in
with small squares of the same size as the outer squares but in a different color.
5. Fill in the centers of the diagrams with small colored squares
6. Draw the next two figures in the pattern. Be sure to include the inner colored squares.
7. Copy the first two columns of the table you created in Item 2 and add a column to
show the relationship between the figure number and the number of inner colored
squares.
16
8. Describe any numerical patterns you see in the table.
9. Write the numbers of inner colored squares as a sequence.
10. Does the sequence of numbers of inner colored squares have a common difference? If
so, identify it. If not, explain.
11. Model with mathematics. Graph the data from the table on the appropriate grid. Be
sure to label an appropriate scale on the 𝑦-axis.
12. Compare the graphs
13. Reason quantitatively. Use the patterns you have described to predict the number of
inner colored squares in the 10th figure of the pattern.
17
14. How is the number of inner squares related to the figure number?
15. Use the variable 𝑛 to represent the figure number. Write an expression that could be
used to determine the number of inner colored squares in any figure number.
16. Use your expression to determine the number of inner colored squares in the 17th
figure.
17. In what figure will the number of inner colored squares be 400?
Ms. Huber discovered another pattern in the artifacts. She noticed that when triangles were
used, the triangles were all equilateral and often multicolored.
18. Attend to precision.
a. Determine the perimeter of each figure in the pattern if each side of one triangle
measures 1 cm.
b. Use the variable 𝑛 to represent the figure number. Write an expression that could
be used to determine the perimeter of any figure number.

19. Ms. Huber found that she could determine the perimeter of any figure in the pattern
using the expression 2𝑛 + 1. Use Ms. Huber’s expression to calculate the perimeters of
the next three figures in the pattern. Use the table below to record your calculations.
20. Create a sequence to represent the perimeters of the figures in the pattern. Does the
sequence have a common difference? If so, identify it. If not, explain.
21. Represent the relationship between the figures in the pattern and their perimeters as a
graph. Label the axes and the scale on your 𝑦-axis.
22. Is it possible to have a figure with a perimeter of 28? Why or why not?
23. Is it possible for the perimeter to be an even number? Why or why not?

makes the equation true.
1. The set of numbers { 1
2, 3, 6, 17, 0, 11 } contains possible solutions to the following
equations. Determine which of these numbers are solutions to each of the following
equations.
a. 9𝑥 + 5 = 4(𝑥 + 2) + 5𝑥
