Grade 10 Essential Mathematics Half Course I

Course Overview

Grade 10 Essential Mathematics learners in Half Course I will develop critical-thinking skills by analyzing puzzles and games involving spatial reasoning. They will develop spatial sense through direct and indirect measurement, and they will demonstrate an understanding of the Système International (SI) and the American and British imperial systems by describing the relationships for units of length, area, volume, capacity, and mass. Learners will convert units of measurements among all systems, and they will manipulate and apply formulas involving perimeter and area. They will demonstrate an understanding of employment earnings by calculating gross and net pay, and they will manipulate and apply formulas related to income.

Guiding Principles for the Design of Learning Experiences and Assessment Practices

The Guiding Principles for the Design of Learning Experiences and Assessment Practices provide guidance to all Manitoba educators as they design learning experiences and classroom assessments to strengthen, extend, and expand student learning.

Learning Outcomes

General Learning Outcome: Develop critical thinking skills.

  • 10E1.A.1. Analyze puzzles and games that involve spatial reasoning, using problem-solving strategies.
    [C, CN, PS, R]

    It is intended that this learning outcome be integrated throughout the course by using sliding, rotation, construction, deconstruction, and similar puzzles and games.

General Learning Outcome: Develop an understanding of employment earnings.

  • 10E1.P.1. Demonstrate an understanding of calculations for gross pay and net pay earned through income sources including

    • wages
    • salary
    • contracts
    • commissions
    • piecework

    [C, CN, R, T]

  • 10E1.P.2. Solve problems that require the manipulation and application of formulas related to income.
    [C, CN, ME, PS, R]

General Learning Outcome: Develop spatial sense through direct and indirect measurement.

  • 10E1.M.1. Demonstrate an understanding of the Système International (SI) by describing the relationships of the units for length, area, volume, capacity, and mass.
    [C, CN, ME, V]

    It is intended that this learning outcome be limited to the base units and the prefixes milli, cente, deci, deca, hector, and kilo.
  • 10E1.M.2. Demonstrate an understanding of the imperial system by

    • describing the relationships of the units for length, area, volume, capacity, and mass
    • comparing the American and British imperial units for capacity
    • applying strategies to convert between imperial units and SI units

    [C, CN, ME, V]

  • 10E1.M.3. Solve and verify problems that involve SI and imperial linear measurements, including decimal and fractional measurements.
    [CN, ME, PS, V]

    It is intended that the four arithmetic operations on decimals and fractions be integrated into the problems.
  • 10E1.M.4. Solve problems that require the manipulation and application of formulas related to converting measurement.
    [C, CN, ME, PS, R]

General Learning Outcome: Develop an understanding of spatial relationships applied to area.

  • 10E1.G.1. Solve problems that involve SI and imperial area measurements of regular, composite, and irregular 2-D shapes and 3-D objects, including decimal and fractional measurements.
    [ME, PS, R, V]

  • 10E1.G.2. Solve problems that require the manipulation and application of formulas related to

    • perimeter
    • area

    [C, CN, ME, PS, R]
