1 Subject Area Mathematics Senior High Course Name Advanced Algebra 2B Date June 2010 Advanced Algebra 2B and Algebra 2B courses parallel each other in content and time. The Advanced Algebra 2B class is taught at a slightly more rigorous pace. Students are expected to work at a higher level and are assigned more advanced problems for homework and formal assessments. Students are also given more assessments in addition to tests and quizzes.
