Grade 9 Math - Course Description
The Grade 9 Mathematics curriculum promotes active exploration of a variety of mathematical ideas in the context of meaningful learning experiences. Students will extend work on square roots and be introduced to powers and exponent laws, as well as to rational numbers. Students will work with linear relations. Units on polynomials and linear equations and inequalities provide opportunities to work with variables and equations, with a focus on representing algebraic expressions in multiple ways. Surface area, similarity and transformations, and circle geometry all provide opportunities to further develop students’ sense of shape and space. Students will design and implement a project plan for the collection, display and analysis of data.
