G r a d e 1 1 P r e - C a l c u l u s M a t h e m a t i c s ( 3 0 S ) Grade 11 Pre-Calculus Mathematics (30S) is desiged for studets who ited to study calculus ad related mathematics as part of post-secodary educatio. It builds o the topics studied i Grade 10 Itroductio to Applied ad Pre-Calculus Mathematics ad provides backgroud kowledge ad skills for Grade 12 Pre-Calculus Mathematics. The course comprises a high-level study of theoretical mathematics with a emphasis o problem solvig ad metal mathematics. The topics iclude study of algebra, quadratic fuctios, reciprocal fuctios, ad trigoometry. Assessmet of Grade 11 Pre-Calculus Mathematics should be a balace of assessmet for learig, assessmet as learig, ad assessmet of learig. Assessmet tools used i Grade 11 Pre-Calculus Mathematics should be varied ad may iclude observatio, homework, learig coversatios or iterviews, summative uit essays, demostratios, presetatios, performace tasks, learig logs, projects, ivestigatios, reflective jourals, portfolios, quizzes, tests, ad examiatios. A appropriately prepared portfolio requires a cosistet effort throughout the school term ad a commitmet to completig quality work o a daily basis. The learig outcomes are divided ito three topics: Algebra ad Number; Trigoometry; ad Relatios ad Fuctios. For istructioal purposes, the learig outcomes could be arraged ito uits. Learig outcomes from differet topics could be taught i the same uit. Some learig outcomes may fit ito multiple uits, ad parts of the learig outcome could be taught i oe uit while the remaiig parts ca be taught later. Two possible sequeces of the learig outcomes ito uits with suggested time allotmets follow. The suggested times iclude time for istructio ad assessmet. These are ot the oly possibilities, but they will provide some directio for teachers for their first time through the course. Regardless of the orgaizatio of the learig outcomes ito uits, studets should costatly be lookig for ad be give opportuities to see coectios betwee the various learig outcomes i Grade 11 Pre-Calculus Mathematics.
