MATHEMATICS

The Mathematics I and II unit development was a collaborative project between Okefenokee RESA, Coastal Plains RESA, and Southwest Georgia RESA to provide a resource for lessons to assist teachers as they implement Mathematics I and II. The units were written by a volunteer group of high school mathematics teachers in South Georgia. We recognize that these units, as written, will need revision and adjustment for optimization for other student populations and demographics. All files are in PDF format.

All Math Units have been approved for re-posting.
