Unit 3 - Linear Relations
-we are currently studying linear relations and how to draw graphs from patterns Current HomeworkBecause students have varied home lives, it is my policy that work will be completed in class wherever possible. I'd rather students complete work in class so they can request help when they need it.
That being said, students are responsible for completing any questions they were unable to finish in class time. They should also review class notes every night. Homework Assignments |

Grade 9 Math Curriculum
The Grade 9 Math Curriculum is designed to prepare students for high school mathematics, as well as post-secondary studies. A strong focus on numeracy will also help students develop the general math skills that are a vital part to our lives.
Unit 1 - Numeracy
Numeracy refers to our most fundamental mathematical operations. Students learn how to handle numbers and review their basic mathematical functions such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
Unit 2 - Powers and Exponent Laws
In Unit 2, students will be working with exponents and getting their first real experience dealing with powers. They will learn specialized rules that will help them multiply and divide powers without the need for a calculator.
Students also review and expand on Scientific Notation which will become an important part of their future science courses. Chemistry and Physics both use Scientific Notation regularly.
Time should be taken to understand each rule and how these rules are different from each other.

Unit 3 - Rational Numbers
Students will be dealing with rational numbers and learning to add, subtract, multiply, and divide rational numbers.
Unit 4 - Linear Relations
Unit 4 focuses on the linear relation and how to graph it. Students learn that any linear relation can be represented by the equation y = mx + b.
They will also use this information to solve word problems related to linear relations.
They will also use this information to solve word problems related to linear relations.
Unit 5 - Polynomials
Students will learn to deal with expressions and equations that involve a variety of terms known as polynomials.
They will also learn to use the FOIL method to solve quadratic equations.
They will also learn to use the FOIL method to solve quadratic equations.
Unit 6 - Linear Equations and Inequalities
Unit 6 focuses on introducing Algebra. Students will learn to solve equations using algebraic operations and rules to find the value of a given variable.
Unit 7 - Similarity and Transformations
This unit focuses on geometry as it applies to figures that are congruent (same size, same shape) and figures that are similar (same shape).
Students will then use the rules for similarity to solve problems involving similar triangles.
Students will also examine how shapes can be transformed to create corresponding figures.
Students will then use the rules for similarity to solve problems involving similar triangles.
Students will also examine how shapes can be transformed to create corresponding figures.
Unit 8 - Circle Geometry
Students will study the circle and rules that relate to circles, angles, and tangents.
Students will understand how concepts such as minor arcs and major arcs relate to angles inside a circle. They will also learn to solve for angles inside a circle.
Students will understand how concepts such as minor arcs and major arcs relate to angles inside a circle. They will also learn to solve for angles inside a circle.
Unit 9 - Probability and Statistics
In this unit, students will learn about basic statistics and how we analyze data to compare and contrast information.
In particular, we will focus on matters related to data collection and how survey data may be manipulated to produce differing results.
