CBA Program List

The following table is a brief description of the programs that make up CBA. They are listed in the order in which they are usually presented in the course, which is also in the order of the identifying program number.

It is neither intended nor expected that a given class would use all of the programs. Several are too easy for a standard algebra 1 class. Several others will present a challenge to an honors algebra 1 class.  A more complete description of the programs is included under Program Descriptions.
