Prerequisite
Principles of Mathematics 9 (MPM1D) or Mathematics Transfer (MPM1H)
Description
This course enables students to broaden their understanding of relationships and extend their problem-solving and algebraic skills through investigation, the effective use of technology, and abstract reasoning. Students will explore quadratic relations and their applications; solve and apply linear systems; verify properties of geometric figures using analytic geometry; and investigate the trigonometry of right and acute triangles. Studentswill reason mathematically and communicate their thinking as they solve multi-step problems.
Teaching and Learning strategies
Along with some of the strategies noted in the assessment for, as, and of learning charts below, strategies will include (but not be limited to):
- Demonstrations
- Student-specific tutorials and one-on-one help
- Structured discussion
- Peer teaching and support
- Real-world problem solving
- Math talk
- Socratic teaching
- Critical pedagogies
- YouTube video support (eg. Khan Academy)
