Article 1: About Math course
Math 8
Students start the basic foundations in algebra, geometry and also data analysis.
Math 10
In this grade students start taking pre-calculus and trigonometry
Math 9
In this course students still continue in algebra and geometry but they add on and also they start taking financial literacy
Math 11
In this grade students still continue in pre-calculus and take a bunch of advanced topics like functions, sequence, etc...
Math 12
In this course students start taking calculus, College math, and data management
MATHEMATICS 12 FOUNDATIONS:
This course is designed to provide students with the mathematical understandings and critical thinking skills needed for post-secondary studies in the arts. Students and parents are encouraged to research the admission requirements for post-secondary programs since they vary from institution to institution and from year to year. The core curriculum consists of geometry, functions, regression analysis, probability, combinatorics, and financial planning, and will continue to focus on the mathematical processes learned in previous mathematics courses.
MATHEMATICS 12 PRE-CALCULUS:
This course is designed to provide students with the mathematical understandings and critical thinking skills needed for post-secondary studies in the sciences. Students and parents are encouraged to research the admission requirements for post-secondary programs since they vary from institution to institution and from year to year. The core curriculum consists of transformations and analyses of various functions used in higher mathematics, geometric sequences and series, as well as trigonometry, and will continue to focus on the mathematical processes learned in previous mathematics courses.
ADVANCED PLACEMENT CALCULUS 12:
This course follows the College Board Advanced Placement curriculum and is the equivalent of a first-year university calculus course. Students who write the AB or BC exams in May and score 4 or better will be granted Calculus 12 AP credit. University results show that students who have taken Calculus 12 do significantly better in first year university where calculus is a required course for many programs. Main topics will include limits, differentiation, derivatives of trigonometric and logarithmic functions, curve-sketching, anti-derivatives, integration, and problems involving maximum/minimum, rate, and growth/decay. A graphics calculator (such as Texas Instrument 83 to TI-89) is highly recommended.
