Algebra syllabus for 8th grade

The math curriculum for Algebra for students aged 13 to 14 typically builds upon the foundational concepts learned in earlier grades and introduces more advanced algebraic concepts and problem-solving skills. Here are some of the key topics covered in the curriculum for algebra for ages 13 to 14:

  1. Algebraic Expressions: Students learn to work with algebraic expressions involving variables, coefficients, constants, and exponents. They understand the concept of combining like terms and simplifying expressions.

  2. Equations and Inequalities: Students solve linear equations and inequalities with one variable, both graphically and algebraically. They learn to apply inverse operations to isolate the variable and find the solutions.

  3. Functions: Students are introduced to the concept of a function and learn to analyze and interpret graphs, tables, and equations representing linear and nonlinear functions. They explore the concepts of domain, range, and intercepts.

  4. Systems of Equations: Students solve systems of linear equations using various methods, such as graphing, substitution, and elimination. They understand the concept of simultaneous solutions and how to interpret them in real-life situations.

  5. Exponents and Radicals: Students work with exponents, including negative and fractional exponents. They simplify expressions involving exponents and understand the laws of exponents. Additionally, they explore square roots, cube roots, and other radicals.

  6. Polynomials: Students learn about operations with polynomials, including addition, subtraction, multiplication, and factoring. They explore the special products and factoring techniques for quadratic expressions.

  7. Graphing: Students learn to graph linear equations, inequalities, and basic quadratic equations. They understand the concepts of slope, intercepts, and the relationship between the graph and the equation.

  8. Data Analysis and Statistics: Students analyze and interpret data using graphical representations such as bar graphs, line graphs, and scatter plots. They learn to calculate and interpret measures of central tendency, such as mean, median, and mode.

  9. Problem Solving: Throughout the curriculum, students apply algebraic concepts and skills to solve real-world problems. They learn to translate verbal descriptions into algebraic equations or inequalities and use algebraic methods to solve them.

It's important to note that specific curriculum content may vary between educational systems and institutions. However, these topics generally form the foundation of an Algebra course for students aged 13 to 14.

A topic is selected at the beginning of a session at Free Math Games and will be remembered when you move between games or activities. The math for the topic is carefully constructed to match the level of difficulty taught in US schools. This means that you as a secondary pupil should see similar math problems to those you are seeing at school (if you are at school) for any particular subject. Please let us know if that is not the case.

See the help box below for instructions on choosing a topic here at Free Math Games.

How to choose a 8th grade Algebra topic for Secondary math

free-math.games screenshot of Choosing a Secondary math topic

Click on the "1. Start" button in the top navigation bar - that brings you to this Secondary level topic selection page. On the topic selection page you will see that the topics are divided up:

  1. By level (Preschool, Elementary and Secondary)
  2. By grade (6th to 8th for this level)
  3. Into broad categories

Since you are currently within the Secondary section of Free Math Games you will see the Secondary topics. The Secondary grades will have loaded. Choose your grade. The broad categories available will load. Click on a category to see the available sub-categories and topics.

Topics available for Secondary math Statistics -> Discrete data at free-math.games

For example, if you choose 7th grade, then the category: "Algebra" and the sub-category "Sequences" you will be offered a choice of sub-sub-categories and topics suitable for your school grade - in the case of this example, "Generating terms" and "nth term expressions". Click on each sub-sub-category to view the available topics.

When you click on the name of a topic, the topic will load into the lesson page (once a topic has loaded it will be available for all activities and will not have to be downloaded again) and the lesson start page will be displayed. You can choose to do the lesson or jump immediately to the games using that topic.
