Math 9 NumeracyEveryone has missed a day, week, month, or more of school at some point. What this means is that you have no doubt missed something along the way. Mathematics is the type of subject that builds on previous knowledge. Much like building a house you need a solid foundation in order to continue building.
Workplace Math 9 is a course for those students who need help solidifying their foundation. From my experience the 'basics' are often where the gaps first appear. Being confident and competent at Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, and Division go a long way in having a solid foundation. How can one be expected to understand equation manipulation, deeper understanding, and logic questions if we can't do the arithmatic required to take these steps. In this case, practice makes perfect. This course will focus on understanding and building confidence in the basic mathematical operations. Emphasis will be made in many topics some of which are: addition and subtraction, multiplication and division without a calculator, squaring and square roots, operations with fractions, single and multi-step algebra, percentages, finances, area and volume, and most importantly, building confidence. It is generally the plan that students who complete Workplace Math 9 go into Workplace 10 or attempt Foundations of Math 9 in order to move into the Pre-Calculus pathway. |
