OF THE CURRICULUM ORGANIZATION
OF THE CURRICULUM The prescribed learning outcomes for the courses described in this Integrated Resource Package are grouped under five curriculum organizers.
These curriculum organizers reflect the main areas of mathematics that students are expected to address. They form the framework of the curriculum and act as connecting threads across all grade levels for each pathway. The organizers are not equivalent in terms of number of outcomes or the time that students will require in order to achieve these outcomes. Suggestions for estimated instructional times have been included in this IRP. Teachers are expected to adjust these estimated instructional times to meet their students' diverse needs.
A broad statement of the associated general goal for mathematics introduces each set of prescribed learning outcomes. (Material related to the general goals or suborganizers is not addressed in every course.)
The ordering of organizers
and outcomes in the Grades 8 and 9 Mathematics curriculum does not imply an
order of instruction. The order in which various outcomes and topics are addressed
is left to the professional judgment of teachers.
