MATHEMATICS 9 SUPPORT

*This course may be offered in Period 1 or outside of the timetable.

Taken concurrently with Math 9, this course is intended for students who have been assigned to grade 9 but were not successful in or only marginally passed Mathematics 8. Students also choose this course to maintain higher grades. The intent of the course is to provide extra support so that students can be successful in the regular Math 9 program. The course will be offered in period 1 every school day with an 8 am start time. The course will include pre-teaching of concepts, re-teaching of concepts and using alternate strategies to reinforce concepts. Time will also be devoted to improving organizational skills and homework assistance.
