Michigan High School Mathematics Content Expectation Companion Documents
Documents you find on this site are still in **draft format** but still contain lots of useful information. Once finalized they will posted on the MDE high school website ([|www.michigan.gov/highschool]). Comments regarding the draft documents, including errors, should be directed to Ruth Anne Hodges (hodgesr3@michigan.gov) or Dan LaDue (ladued@michigan.gov). Our hope is that these documents will continue to be "living" documents that evolve and grow even after PDF versions are complete and posted. Please join the [|discussion] and let us know what you would like to see added to the documents.

These documents are arranged by topic. Each topic has clarification statements for each expectation as well as background information, assessment guidelines and resources. Toward the back of each topic document are clarifying examples and activites for each expectation.

Priority has been given to those topics that appear in Algebra I. Please remember that in some cases a topic is divided up among course with some expectations appearing Algebra I and some in Algebra II. These documents are **course neutral**; in other words they clarify by looking at the topic as a whole regardless of which course the expectations appear. The HSCE were written without considering courses. Instead the writers worked hard to identify the mathematics content that is important today, regardless of course. While the legislation required us to develop course descriptions for the traditional courses, it also states that the content can be taught in an [|integrated sequence].
