Grade 9 Mathematics (10F) 1 credit (2010)
T0080 10F

This course develops foundation skills and ideas that you will need to continue studying math in the future. Problem solving, communication, reasoning and mental math are some of the themes you will discover in each module. There are four main areas you will be exploring: numbers, relations and patterns, geometry and statistics and probability. After completing this course, you will have gained critical skills and knowledge that you will need for future math learning and confidence in your abilities as a mathematician.

It is structured as follows:

• Module 1: Statistics
• Module 2: Number Sense
• Module 3: Powers
• Module 4: Polynominals
• Module 5: Linear Relations
• Module 6: Circle Geometry
• Module 7: 2-D and 3-D Objects
• Module 8: Symmetry

* When students write their midterm and final exam, they will be allowed to take an Exam Resource Sheet into the examination room.

Required Resources

• Scientific calculator
• metric ruler
• protractor
• graph paper

Suggested Resources

Grade 10 Essential Mathematics(20S) 1 credit (2011)
T3000 20S
Note: Students may not hold credit for both Consumer Mathematics 25G Part I and Part II and Essential Mathematics 20S

This course develops math skills, ideas, and confidence that will enable students to continue studying math in the future. Students will use many of the skills that they already have learned to solve problems and so basic arithmetic operations. There are four main areas that will be explored in this course: personal finance, shapes and space, numbers and decision making. Problem solving, communication, reasoning, and mental math are some of the themes you will discover in each module.

Access to a computer and a spreadsheet program is essential for completing Module 2. It would be very beneficial for students to have access to a computer during audio teleconference classes.

It is structured as follows:

• Module 1: Gross Pay, Time Cards and Percents
• Module 2: Net Pay
• Module 3: Measurement
• Module 4: Geometry
• Module 5: Working with Angles
• Module 6: Consumer Decisions
• Module 7: Trigonometry
• Module 8: Transformations

* When students write their midterm and final exam, they will be allowed to take an Exam Resource Sheet into the examination room.

Practice midterm and final exams (along with answer keys) are available on our ISO Downloads page.

Required Resource

• Scientific Calculator
• Metric Ruler (15 cm long)
• Imperial Ruler (6 inches long)
• Geometry set including a set of compasses, a protractor, and a set square

Suggested Resources

• Access to a computer with spreadsheet and graphing capabilities will be an advantage, but not a requirement. If students do not have access to an online computer they will be able to complete the related learning activities and assignments without it.
• Access to the Internet is recommended as the course will make reference to support material found on the Internet.
