Grade 12 Essential Mathematics Half Course VI

Course Overview

Grade 12 Essential Mathematics learners in Half Course VI will develop critical-thinking skills by analyzing puzzles and games involving logical reasoning. They will develop an understanding of housing costs, including the purchase and maintenance of a house. Learners will develop spatial sense involving polygons by using sine law and cosine law. They will develop an understanding of business finance by demonstrating an awareness of government taxation forms and the procedures involved in owning a small business, and they will critique the viability of a small business. Learners will develop critical skills related to uncertainty involving the application of probability.

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.
