Number of weeks: 10 weeks
Welcome to Math Grade 8 - our full-year program consists of three separate terms and two options for live weekly meetings.
Option 1: One live online meeting per week and includes curriculum. Each term is billed individually based on the number of weeks and will require individual enrolment.
Option 2: We also offer a second live weekly option for families wishing for additional math support. This option provides a second live online meeting weekly. This second meeting with the instructor helps ensure learners have ample time to practice and master concepts and allows for more in-depth exploration of material and testing (testing is optional to all families but only available with the second live meeting option). These secondary days must also be enrolled each term separately.
COURSE OBJECTIVES:
The main goals of mathematics education are to prepare students to:
- Use mathematics confidently to solve problems
- Communicate and reason mathematically
- Commit themselves to lifelong learning
This live online, instructor-led math class will help your learner thrive in mathematics this year. The course includes all curriculum (meets or exceeds all provincial curricular standards). Learners will attend live online instruction and be given homework completely throughout the week. The course will include marked assignments, projects, and an end-of-term written summary to assist in documenting learner understanding—families wishing to have learners complete testing will need to also enrol in the twice-weekly option.
