Epsom Girls Grammar School
9 Mathematics
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Mr T. Lin.
In Year 9 Mathematics, students will learn to solve problems in a range of mathematical contexts, including Number, Algebra, Geometry, Measurement and Statistics. We aim for students to achieve both procedural fluency and relational understanding of mathematical concepts, to become flexible mathematical thinkers and problem solvers.
Most students will be in mixed-ability classes, but we also have some classes for students who would benefit from additional extension opportunities.
Students are assessed using topic tests and assignments, and an end-of-year common assessment task on all topics learned during the year.
Course Costs and Equipment/ Stationery requirements
Casio graphics calculator ($180 new, but an older model is fine). In year 9, students can use any calculator that does powers and square roots, but we recommend that they buy the Casio graphics calculator which will be required from year 10 onwards. Students should purchase a homework book (about $25) as advised by their teacher. These items will be available from the school uniform shop.
