Math 10 Foundations & Precalculusmrs. N. Gill

Math 11 Foundations is an academic course that prepares students for Math 12 Foundations. Students need to be prepared to work hard and complete all assigned work to have success in this class. Math 11 includes topics such as: Reasoning, Angles and Triangles, Trigonometry, Statistics, Linear Inequalities, and Quadratic Equations. Foundations of Mathematics and Pre-Calculus 10 This course combines the Foundations and the Pre-Calculus pathways and is a pre-requisite for both Foundations of Mathematics 20 and Pre-Calculus 20 Mathematics. Mathematics 10 Foundations and Pre-Calculus is a continued attempt to build the foundation that is the required to support the journey that is Mathematics. This isn't easy or hard, it is a puzzle and a challenge. Everything is challenging until we figure it out. Don't quit, push yourself, and make mistakes. That is when we learn!!
