Unit 3
Fractions, Decimals & Percents
Moving between fractions, decimals (including repeating decimals) and percents, finding a percent of a number, and simplifying and scaling ratios.
Curriculum outcome: Number sense and number theory (by Grade 9) · percents, fractions and decimals
Unit 4
Tax, Tips & Discounts
Everyday money percents: sale prices, sales tax (with the rates given), restaurant tips, comparing deals and simple interest on savings.
Curriculum outcome: Number sense and number theory (by Grade 9) · percent in everyday money problems
Unit 5
Coordinates & Transformations

Curriculum outcome: Spatial sense (by Grade 9) · transformations of shapes on a coordinate grid
Unit 6
Linear Relations
Finding the rule behind growing patterns, writing expressions like 3n + 2, and connecting tables, graphs and real situations such as rental costs.
Curriculum outcome: Patterns and relationships (by Grade 9) · patterns, tables and graphs of linear relations
Unit 7
Two-Step Equations
Solving equations like 3x + 5 = 26 by undoing each step on both sides, writing equations from word problems and checking solutions.
Curriculum outcome: Patterns and relationships (by Grade 9) · solving one- and two-step equations
Unit 8
Circles
Using radius, diameter and π (about 3.14) to find the distance around a circle and the area inside it, including real objects like wheels and pizzas.
Curriculum outcome: Measurement (by Grade 9) · circumference and the relationship to diameter
Unit 9
Circle Graphs
Reading and building circle graphs: turning percents into numbers of people and sector angles (out of 360°), and comparing categories.
Curriculum outcome: Data management (by Grade 9) · creating and interpreting circle graphs
Unit 10
Probability
Listing outcomes of two independent events (like a coin and a die), finding theoretical probabilities by multiplying, and comparing them with experimental results.
Curriculum outcome: Probability (by Grade 9) · probability of single and two independent events
Unit 11
Fractions
Adding and subtracting fractions with different denominators, and multiplying and dividing a fraction by a fraction.
Curriculum outcome: Operation sense (by Grade 9) · adding and subtracting positive fractions and mixed numbers
Unit 12
Area & Constructions
Area of triangles and parallelograms using base and height, and the vocabulary of perpendicular and parallel lines and bisectors.
Curriculum outcome: Measurement (by Grade 9) · area of triangles, parallelograms and circles
Unit 13
