Create a Comprehensive Course Guide which would: Provide an overview of the 8 th Grade Mathematics Curriculum Provide clarification of CCGPS Mathematics Standards Link together many sources of information pertinent to CCGPS 8 th Grade Math Update the Units by: Increasing Task Options Developing Differentiation Opportunities within each task. Resource Revision Team Goals
Accessing Resources through SLDS Click on the “RESOURCES” tab at the top Choose “Search by Subject” Using the drop down boxes, choose your Subject, Grade Level, and Course Name Click “Get Resources” Choose the “Teacher Tools” tab 1st 2nd 3rd 4th
This is your Comprehensive Course Guide

Unit 4 Functions
Slight change of format Included Standards for Mathematical Practice (SMPs) for each Task and differentiation options Suggestions sent by educators from all over the United States via and the wiki Observations made from personal experiences Overall Changes in the Unit
Selected Terms and Symbols
Note: While student editions of the units can still be found at only the Teacher’s Edition (found in the Learning Village and SLDS) include the Task Table.
A new section has been included in each task to list the appropriate Standards for Mathematical Practice (SMPs). STANDARDS FOR MATHEMATICAL PRACTICE: This task uses all of the practices with emphasis on: 2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively. 4. Model with mathematics. Formative Assessment Lesson: Modeling Situations with Linear Equations
The standards are hyperlinked to the CCGPS document which can also be found at
Common Misconceptions have been identified for each task to assist teachers in guiding the students to success.

Suggestions for differentiation have been added to each task.
Use the Wiki to share information with other teachers and to ask questions. This is a living document. Please share anything you may have to enhance this or any unit. The Wiki is the teacher community page to share anything you have. The DOE CCGPS tab located at georgiastandards.org is static, viewable for anyone. Teacher editions and any updates or additional resources, including hot links, are only available through Learning Village. If you are attending the Georgia Mathematics Conference at Rock Eagle in October, come visit us. Our session is Friday morning. Things to Remember

The following table shows the amount of garbage that was produced in the US each year between 2002 and 2010 (as reported by the EPA). Unit 4 Challenges Adapted from Illustrative Mathematics 8.F US Garbage t (years) G (million tons)
The following table shows the amount of garbage that was produced in the US each year between 2002 and 2010 (as reported by the EPA). Let’s define a function which assigns to an input t the total amount of garbage, G, produced in that year. To find these values, you can look them up in the table.
