MATHEMATICS FOR WORK AND EVERYDAY LIFE MEL 3E1
Grade 11 Workplace Preparation
This course enables students to broaden their understanding of mathematics as it is applied in the workplace and daily life. Students will solve problems associated with earning money, paying taxes, and making purchases; apply calculations of simple and compound interest in saving, investing, and borrowing; and calculate the costs of transportation and travel in a variety of situations. Students will consolidate their mathematical skills as they solve problems and communicate their thinking. Prerequisite: Principles of Mathematics, Grade 9, Academic, or Foundations of Mathematics, Grade 9, Applied, or a ministry-approved locally developed Grade 10 math course.
FOUNDATIONS FOR COLLEGE MATHEMATICS MBF 3C1
Grade 11 College
This course enables students to broaden their understanding of mathematics as a problem-solving tool in the real world. Students will extend their understanding of quadratic relations, as well as of measurement and geometry; investigate situations involving exponential growth; solve problems involving compound interest; solve financial problems connected with vehicle ownership; and develop their ability to reason by collecting, analysing, and evaluating data involving one and two variables. Students will consolidate their mathematical skills as they solve problems and communicate their thinking. Prerequisite: Foundations of Mathematics, Grade 10, Applied (recommended mark 70% or above)
FUNCTIONS AND APPLICATIONS MCF 3M1
Grade 11 University/College Preparation
This course introduces basic features of the function by extending students’ experiences with quadratic relations. It focuses on quadratic, trigonometric, and exponential functions and their use in modelling real-world situations. Students
will represent functions numerically, graphically, and algebraically; simplify expressions; solve equations; and solve
problems relating to financial and trigonometric applications. Students will reason mathematically and communicate their thinking as they solve multi-step problems. Prerequisite: Principles of Mathematics, Grade 10, Academic (recommended mark 60-75%) or Foundations of Mathematics, Grade 10, Applied (recommended mark 85%)
FUNCTIONS MCR 3U1
Grade 11 University Preparation
This course introduces the mathematical concept of the function by extending students’ experiences with linear and quadratic relations. Students will investigate properties of discrete and continuous functions, including trigonometric and exponential functions; represent functions numerically, algebraically, and graphically; solve problems involving applications of functions; and develop facility in simplifying polynomial and rational expressions. Students will reason mathematically and communicate their thinking as they solve multi-step problems.
Prerequisite: Principles of Mathematics, Grade 10, Academic (recommended mark 75% or above)
FUNCTIONS MCR 3UE
Grade 11 University Enriched
This course covers the same curriculum expectations as the MCR3U1.
Prerequisite: Mathematics, Grade 10, Academic/Gifted (recommendation by Grade 10 Academic Math teacher)
Note: Although the curriculum will be covered at an accelerated rate to allow for enrichment activities, the same Ministry expectations for subject will be covered and evaluations will be equitable.
