In Discrete Mathematics Honors, instructional time will emphasize five areas: (1) extending understanding of sequences and patterns to include Fibonacci sequences and tessellations; (2) applying probability and combinatorics; (3) extending understanding of systems of equations and inequalities to solve linear programming problems; (4) developing an understanding of Graph Theory, Election Theory and Set Theory and (5) developing an understanding of propositional logic, arguments and methods of proof. All clarifications stated, whether general or specific to Discrete Mathematics Honors, are expectations for instruction of that benchmark. Curricular content for all subjects must integrate critical-thinking, problem-solving, and workforce-literacy skills; communication, reading, and writing skills; mathematics skills; collaboration skills; contextual and applied-learning skills; technology-literacy skills; information and media-literacy skills; and civic-engagement skills.
