Grade 10 Introduction to Applied and Pre-Calculus Mathematics

Course Overview

Grade 10 Applied and Pre-Calculus Mathematics learners will develop spatial sense and proportional reasoning that involve linear measurements, surface area and volume, and conversions within and between SI and imperial units of measure; they will also develop and apply the primary trigonometric ratios. They will develop algebraic reasoning and number sense by demonstrating an understanding of factors of whole numbers, irrational numbers, powers, multiplication of polynomial expressions, and trinomial factoring. Learners will develop algebraic and graphical reasoning through the study of relations, functions, and slope.

Guiding Principles for the Design of Learning Experiences and Assessment Practices

The Guiding Principles for the Design of Learning Experiences and Assessment Practices provide guidance to all Manitoba educators as they design learning experiences and classroom assessments to strengthen, extend, and expand student learning. Planning with the learner, the context, and the curricula in mind creates opportunities for the co-construction of inclusive learning experiences and assessment practices where the diverse learning needs, abilities, and interests of each learner are met.

Assessment for and as learning involve learners in the process and support learner reflection; assessment of learning (commonly known as summative evaluation) measures final outcomes. All aspects, when done well, contribute to informed teaching and reliable judgment of learner progress.

Guiding Principles for Evaluation and Reporting

The Guiding Principles for Evaluation and Reporting are currently still under development and not yet available. When completed, a notification will be added to the Manitoba Framework for Learning “What’s New?” page on the website.
