Math 10 FPC: June 10 ~ Review day Chapter 5

I haven’t posted anything in a while, I apologize for that. I am finding that I have less and less time to accomplish all that needs to be done and more and more things are being asked of me in this time.

Today we covered Chapter 5 ~ Factoring polynomials. After going through the factor Flowchart, we looked at some questions from the textbook. I have given you one of the online practice provincial exams but if you would like more questions, here is the link that will take you to the ministry of education website where you can fill in the criteria and find multiple online practice provincial exams and the answer key to go with them.

Although these only resemble the provincial exam you will write, it is very valuable to go through these and get a feel for what provincial exam questions are like.

Text Section 5.4

Text Section 5.3

Math 10 AW: June 10 ~ Review day Ch 1 and 6

I haven’t posted anything in a while, I apologize for that. I am finding that I have less and less time to accomplish all that needs to be done and more and more things are being asked of me in this time.

I decided against giving another quiz for Chapter 9 and 10 out of necessity more than compassion. PLease Know that you are still responisble for understanding those chapters for the exam, but that we will not go any deeper into those concepts.

Today we covered Chapter 6 and Chapter 1: Dealing with Money. WE went through the CHapter tests in our books and did some examples from the online provincial exam. If you would like to do these questions at your own pace, here is the link that will take you to the ministry of education website where you can fill in the criteria and find multiple online practice provincial exams and the answer key to go with them.
