Common Core Algebra 2

The content standards associated with Algebra II are based on the New York State Common Core Learning Standards for Mathematics and the PARCC Model Content Framework for Algebra II. The content standards define what students should understand and be able to do at the high school level; the Model Content Framework describes which content is included and emphasized within the Algebra II course, specifically.

 

For high school mathematics, the standards are organized at three levels: conceptual categories, domains and clusters.

 

Algebra II is associated with high school content standards within five conceptual categories: Number & Quantity, Algebra, Functions, Geometry and Statistics & Probability. Each conceptual category contains domains of related clusters of standards. This chart shows the high school mathematics domains included in Algebra II, as well as the corresponding percent of credits on the Algebra II Regents Exam:

 

Conceptual Category	Percent of Algebra II Regents Exam	High School Mathematics Domains Included in Algebra II
Number & Quantity	5%-12%	The Real Number System (N-RN)   Quantities (N-Q)   The Complex Number System (N-CN)
Algebra	35%-44%	Seeing Structure in Expressions (A-SSE)   Arithmetic with Polynomials and Rational Expressions (A-APR)   Creating Equations (A-CED)   Reasoning with Equations and Inequalities (A-REI)   Expressing Geometric Properties with Equations (G-GPE)
Functions	30% - 40%	Interpreting Functions (F-IF)   Building Functions (F-BF)   Linear, Quadratic, and Exponential Models (F-LE)   Trigonometric Functions (F-TF)
Statistics & Probability	14% - 21%	Interpreting categorical and quantitative data (S-ID)   Making Inferences and Justifying Conclusions (S-IC)   Conditional Probability and the Rules of Probability (S-CP)
