 * __Mathematics 90B COURSE OUTLINE__**

Evaluation: Self-Reflection Quizzes 10% Unit Exams 30% Inquiry Activities 10% Assignments 10% Journals/Exit Slips 10% Comprehensive Final Exam (one per semester) 30%

Expectations: There will be at least one self-reflection quiz to be done in each unit. I will go over each question in class and students will correct their own questions. To receive full marks for the self-reflection students must explain their mistake and make any corrections. Unit exams will be written at the end of each unit. Unit assignments, journals and inquiry activities will be checked on the day of the unit exam. The rational for this is: that some students are very busy outside of school and may not finish an assignment the very next day. However, it is an expectation that all homework and inquiry activity assignments are done by the unit exam day in order to improve results and decrease test anxiety. Any student wishing to have a rewrite on an exam must have all the assignments, and inquiry activities completed for that unit. Students must complete the rewrite before we finish the next unit. There will be a limit of 2 rewrites in a semester.

Course Content: Unit 1 – Chapter 6: Linear Equations and Inequalities Unit 2 – Chapter 4: Linear Relations Unit 3 – Chapter 7: Similarity and Transformations Unit 4 – Chapter 8: Circle Geometry Unit 5 – Chapter 9: Probability and Statistics
