    Prerequisite: None


    COURSE DESCRIPTION


    This course enables students to consolidate, and continue to develop, an understanding of mathematical concepts related to number sense and operations, algebra, measurement, geometry, data, probability, and financial literacy. Students will use mathematical processes, mathematical modelling, and coding to make sense of the mathematics they are learning and to apply their understanding to culturally responsive and relevant real-world situations. Students will continue to enhance their mathematical reasoning skills, including proportional reasoning, spatial reasoning, and algebraic reasoning, as they solve problems and communicate their thinking.


    OVERALL EXPECTATIONS


    Social-Emotional Learning Skills in Mathematics

    Throughout the end of this course, students will:

    AA1. develop and explore a variety of social-emotional learning skills in a context that supports and reflects this learning in connection with the expectations across all other strands

    Mathematical Thinking and Making Connections

    Throughout this course, students will:

    A1. apply the mathematical processes to develop a conceptual understanding of, and procedural fluency with, the mathematics they are learning

    A2. make connections between mathematics and various knowledge systems, their lived experiences, and various real-life applications of mathematics, including careers

    Number

    By the end of this course, students will:

    B1. demonstrate an understanding of the development and use of numbers, and make connections between sets of numbers

    B2. represent numbers in various ways, evaluate powers, and simplify expressions by using the relationships between powers and their exponents

    B3. apply an understanding of rational numbers, ratios, rates, percentages, and proportions, in various mathematical contexts, and to solve problems


    Algebra

    By the end of this course, students will:

    C1. demonstrate an understanding of the development and use of algebraic concepts and of their connection to numbers, using various tools and representations

    C2. apply coding skills to represent mathematical concepts and relationships dynamically, and to solve problems, in algebra and across the other strands

    C3. represent and compare linear and non-linear relations that model real-life situations, and use these representations to make predictions

    C4. demonstrate an understanding of the characteristics of various representations of linear and non-linear relations, using tools, including coding when appropriate


    Data

    By the end of this course, students will:

    D1. describe the collection and use of data, and represent and analyse data involving one and two variables

    D2. apply the process of mathematical modelling, using data and mathematical concepts from other strands, to represent, analyse, make predictions, and provide insight into real-life situations


    Geometry and Measurement

    By the end of this course, students will:

    E1. demonstrate an understanding of the development and use of geometric and measurement relationships, and apply these relationships to solve problems, including problems involving real-life situations


    Financial Literacy

    By the end of this course, students will:

    F1. demonstrate the knowledge and skills needed to make informed financial decisions

    EVALUATION SCHEME


    A final grade (percentage mark) is calculated at the end of the course and reflects the quality of the student’s achievement of the overall expectations of the course, in accordance with the provincial curriculum.


    The final grade will be determined as follows:


    • Seventy percent (70%) of the grade will be based on evaluation conducted throughout the course. This portion of the grade should reflect the student’s most consistent level of achievement throughout the course, although special consideration should be given to more recent evidence of achievement.


    • Thirty percent (30%) of the grade will be based on a final evaluation administered at or towards the end of the course. This evaluation will be based on evidence from one or a combination of the following: an examination, a performance, an essay, and/or another method of evaluation suitable to the course content. The final evaluation allows the student an opportunity to demonstrate comprehensive achievement of the overall expectations for the course.

TEACHING AND LEARNING STRATEGIES

A variety of teaching and learning strategies are used to allow students many opportunities to attain the necessary skills for success in this course and in future studies. In all activities, consideration will be taken to ensure that individual students’ multiple intelligences and learning strengths are addressed through the use of varied and multiple activities in each lesson.

STRATEGIES FOR ASSESSMENT AND EVALUATION OF STUDENT PERFORMANCE

The primary purpose of assessment and evaluation is to improve student learning. Assessment and evaluation is based on the Ministry of Education’s Growing Success policy document, which articulates the Ministry’s vision for how assessment and evaluation is practiced in Ontario schools.

​

 

Growing Success describes the three assessment types as follows:

​

  • Assessment as Learning: focuses on the explicit fostering of students’ capacity over time to be their own best assessors, but teachers need to start by presenting and modelling external, structured opportunities for students to assess themselves.

     

  • Assessment for Learning: the process of seeking and interpreting evidence for use by learners and their teachers to decide where the learners are in their learning, where they need to go, and how best to get there.

     

  • Assessment of Learning: the assessment that becomes public and results in statements or symbols about how well students are learning.

PLAGIARISM

Plagiarism is a serious offense. It is defined as taking words, phrasing, sentence structure, or any other element of the expression of another person’s ideas, and using them as if they were your own. Plagiarism is a violation of another person’s rights, whether the material taken is great or small.Students will be assisted in developing strategies and techniques to avoid plagiarism. They need to be aware that plagiarized term work will be penalized and could result in a mark of zero.
