MATHEMATICS – GRADE 8
Prescribed Learning Outcomes
NUMBER
It is expected that students will:
A1 demonstrate an understanding of perfect square and square root, concretely, pictorially, and symbolically (limited to whole numbers)
A2 determine the approximate square root of numbers that are not perfect squares (limited to whole numbers)
A3 demonstrate an understanding of percents greater than or equal to 0%
A4 demonstrate an understanding of ratio and rate
A5 solve problems that involve rates, ratios, and proportional reasoning
A6 demonstrate an understanding of multiplying and dividing positive fractions and mixed numbers, concretely, pictorially, and symbolically
A7 demonstrate an understanding of multiplication and division of integers, concretely, pictorially, and symbolically
PATTERNS AND RELATIONS (PATTERNS)
It is expected that students will:
B1 graph and analyse two-variable linear relations
B2 model and solve problems using linear equations concretely, pictorially, and symbolically, where a, b, and c are integers
SHAPE AND SPACE (MEASUREMENT)
It is expected that students will:
C1 develop and apply the Pythagorean theorem to solve problems
C2 draw and construct nets for 3-D objects
C3 determine the surface area of – right rectangular prisms – right triangular prisms – right cylinders to solve problems
C4 develop and apply formulas for determining the volume of right prisms and right cylinders
SHAPE AND SPACE (3-D OBJECTS AND 2-D SHAPES)
It is expected that students will:
C5 draw and interpret top, front, and side views of 3-D objects composed of right rectangular prisms
SHAPE AND SPACE (TRANSFORMATIONS)
It is expected that students will:
C6 demonstrate an understanding of tessellation by – explaining the properties of shapes that make tessellating possible – creating tessellations –
identifying tessellations in the environment
STATISTICS AND PROBABILITY (DATA ANALYSIS)
It is expected that students will:
D1 critique ways in which data is presented
STATISTICS AND PROBABILITY (CHANCE AND UNCERTAINTY)
It is expected that students will:
D2 solve problems involving the probability of independent events
