THE ONTARIO CURRICULUM: Mathematics

MHF4Ur extends students’ experience with functions. Students will investigate the properties of polynomial, rational, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions; broaden their understanding of rates of change; and develop facility in applying these concepts and skills. Students will also refine their use of the mathematical processes necessary for success in senior mathematics. MHF4Ur online is intended both for students taking the Calculus and Vectors course as a prerequisite for a university program and for those wishing to consolidate their understanding of mathematics before proceeding to any one of a variety of university programs

UNIT ONE

Polynomials
Essential Question: How can characteristics of polynomials be used to make connections between functions and their graphical representations?
  • In this unit, students will investigate the key properties and characteristics of polynomials and use their findings to form connections between algebraic and graphical representations of polynomial functions. Students will develop skills that can be used to analyze and solve polynomial equations and inequalities.

UNIT TWO

Rational Functions
Essential Question: What patterns exist in rational functions and how can they be used to make predictions about their graphs?
  • In this unit, students will examine the key characteristics of rational functions and use them to develop an understanding of their graphical representations. Students will investigate the different cases where horizontal asymptotes occur and use their understanding to solve rational equations and inequalities.

UNIT THREE

Trigonometry
Essential Question: How can the properties of trigonometric functions be used to make predictions about real-world scenarios?
  • In this unit, students will build on their understanding of trigonometry acquired from previous studies of mathematics. Students will develop an understanding of radian measure and conceptualize special triangles and the unit circle in terms of radians. Students will explore advanced trigonometric identities and make connections to the graphs of sine and cosine. These graphs will be used to develop the graphs of tangent, cosecant, secant, and cotangent. Lastly, students will apply the understandings developed in this unit to solve trigonometric equations and real-world problems.

UNIT FOUR

Exponential and Logarithmic Functions
Essential Question: How can the relationship between exponential and logarithmic functions be used to solve real-world problems?
  • In this unit, students will review exponential functions and make connections to the logarithmic function by applying an understanding of inverse functions. Students will then learn to write expressions in both exponential and logarithmic form. Students will learn about the laws of logarithms and how they can be applied to solve logarithmic equations. Lastly, students will combine the understandings they develop throughout this unit and apply them to solve real-world problems that can be modelled using exponential and logarithmic functions.

UNIT FIVE

Combining Functions and Rates of Change
Essential Question: How can rates of change be used to make sense of motion in the world?
  • In this unit, students will begin by examining sums, differences, products, and quotients of functions. Students will then substitute functions into other functions in order to form composite functions. The domain, range, and key characteristics of combined functions will then be explored. Students will then turn their attention to rates of change of functions and investigate how the average rate of change can be used to approximate the instantaneous rate of change of a given function.

FINAL EXAM

Proctored Exam
30% of Final Grade
  • This exam is the final evaluation of MHF4Ur online. Students need to arrange their final exam 10 days in advance. All coursework should be completed and submitted before writing the final exam, please be advised that once the exam is written, any outstanding coursework will be given a grade of zero.

Though our physical doors remain temporarily closed, the minds of our students stay open. Summer classes are continuing to meet on their regular daily schedules, in virtual classrooms with face-to-face instruction and peer interaction.  The Blyth Academy model of small class sizes, flexible scheduling and individualized approach have enabled us to remain faithful to our standards. Our commitment to ongoing and meaningful communication between school, teachers, students and families has been critical to this effort.

Although our students have transitioned into summer mode and COVID-19 restrictions have begun to loosen, we are looking ahead to what September will hold for our campuses and families.
We want to be clear - our preference and our priority is to get students back to our campuses, but we must ensure this is done in a safe and effective way. While we await official guidance from Public Health and the Ministry of Education, a "return to school" task force has been hard at work putting concrete operational plans in place for all likely scenarios. This includes a full return to campus with safeguards, a blended model of virtual and in-campus learning and the continuation of fully virtual classrooms. All scenarios will provide robust learning and live, daily instruction and interaction with teachers and peers. 
With ten campuses across Ontario, we realize that each one of our schools is a unique space and community. We will be implementing across-the-board policies on hand washing, facility cleaning and social distancing measures. Each school is also prepared to pivot individually based on the guidance of local health authorities and to best serve students and families. 
Our recent survey showed that over 80 per cent of Blyth Academy families are eager to return to campuses, and we are hard at work to prepare for this day. As September's scenario becomes clearer and more information becomes available, we will continue to communicate.
