The Year at a Glance provides an overview of the mathematics content taught in the course. 

Instructional time should focus on:

• formulating and reasoning about expressions and equations, including modeling an association in bivariate data with a linear equation, and solving linear equations and systems of linear equations;
• grasping the concept of a function and using functions to describe quantitative relationships; and
• analyzing two- and three-dimensional space and figures us-ing distance, angle, similarity, and congruence, and understanding and applying the Pythagorean Theorem.
