Maximizing Grade 9 Math was developed in 2003–2005 by Alberta teachers to support math teaching and learning related to the WNCP. A focus group of teachers and department heads identified a need for a resource that had a 100% fit with the curriculum and that contained materials to improve achievement of all students including students requiring either modification or extension of the curriculum. How does this resource support different teaching styles? The teaching plans in Maximizing Grade 9 Math are in no way prescriptive – they serve as models or possible methods by which to teach students. This resource allows for a range of experience in the teachers who use the resource. Beginning teachers, or teachers new to a grade level or new to teaching mathematics, will find the strategies helpful and may choose to use all of the suggestions. Experienced mathematics teachers will adapt the lessons to suit their individual teaching styles. How is this resource organized? The organization of Maximizing Grade 9 Math is based on the strands from the Math 9 curriculum: Number, Patterns and Relations, Shape and Space and Statistics and Probability. Each strand is individually packaged. Each lesson is organized in the following manner. Title page Sub-strand name The sub-strand is identified in a box at the top of the page. Lesson Title The lesson title is identified next. On all subsequent pages, the lesson title is identified in the box at the top of the page. General Outcome The general outcome, referred to as GO, is identified next. These are taken from the Mathematics 9 curriculum document. Specific Outcome The specific outcome(s) for the teaching plan, referred to as SO, is identified next. Whenever appropriate, specific outcomes have been grouped together for the teaching plan. These are taken from the Mathematics 9 curriculum document. Any associated mathematical processes for each lesson are indicated as follows: C = Communication, CN = Connections, E = Estimation & Mental Mathematics, PS = Problem Solving, R = Reasoning, T = Technology and V = Visualization.

SO 1: Give examples of numbers that satisfy the conditions of natural, whole, integral and rational numbers, and show that these numbers comprise the rational number system. [C, CN, PS, R] SO 2: Describe, orally and in writing, whether or not a number is rational. [C, R] Essential Background Knowledge Essential Learnings Students should be able to: • explain the difference between a terminating and a non-terminating decimal. Students will be able to: • classify numbers into their appropriate number systems • provide examples of numbers that belong to more than one number system • show how the decimal numbers fit into both the rational and irrational number systems • determine whether or not a number is rational. Essential Questions 1. What is a natural number? 2. What is a whole number? 3. What is a rational number? 4. What is an integer? 5. What is an irrational number? 6. What is a real number? 7. What is the relationship between the number systems? Copyright © Resource Development Services, Edmonton Public Schools, 2005. Permission to copy STUDENT MASTERS granted to individual classroom teachers only. 1 G9 • Number Concepts • SO 1-2 Number Systems Journal Prompts 1. Describe the difference between terminating and non-terminating decimals. 2. Explain why a rational number could not be an irrational number. 3. The natural set of numbers is the first set of numbers to be used in history. What are some possible reasons for this?

Use your calculator to convert the following numbers to decimal form. For example: 2 = 2 ÷ 5 = 0.4 5 a. 1 = 4 b. 3 = 5 c. 6 = 9 d. 2 = 9 e. 8 = 11 f. 4 = 10 g. 1 = 20 h. 4 = 9 i. 23 = 50 j. 2 = 11 k. 8 = 16 l. 5 = 9 m. 2 3 n. 3 8 o. 69 150 2. Classify these numbers into two groups. 3. Explain how you created the two groups in question 2. Copyright © Resource Development Services, Edmonton Public Schools, 2005.

This includes the following: Natural Numbers: 6 can be written as 6 1 Whole Numbers: 0 can be written as 0 1 Integers: -8 can be written as –8 1 Terminating Decimals: 0.3 can be written as 3 10 Repeating Decimals: 0.777777…or 0.7 can be written as 7 9 Decimal numbers that are non-terminating and nonrepeating. Numbers that cannot be written in the form of a fraction. For example, Irrational Numbers (Q): E.g., Real Numbers (R): 3, π, 5 , 67.3591065… The combination of the rational numbers and the irrational numbers, which includes all of the above sets.
