Year10 Mathematics
MAT10 Course Description Recommended Prior LearningThis course is designed for all year 10 students to build on their foundational understanding developed in Year 9
This course is designed to strengthen students' skills and understanding across all key strands: Number and Algebra, Geometry and Measurement, and Statistics. It aims to deepen the students' ability to apply mathematical and statistical concepts to more complex and abstract problems, encouraging critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
Throughout the year, we will integrate various themes, projects, technology, and local real-world applications to make learning engaging and relevant. By connecting different strands and emphasising logical reasoning, we aim to prepare students for NCEA Level 1 mathematics rigour.
