Mathematics 9 | MTH1W
This course enables students to consolidate, and continue to develop, an understanding of mathematical concepts related to number sense and operations, algebra, measurement, geometry, data, probability, and financial literacy. Students will use mathematical processes, mathematical modelling, and coding to make sense of the mathematics they are learning and to apply their understanding to culturally responsive and relevant real-world situations. Students will continue to enhance their mathematical reasoning skills, including proportional reasoning, spatial reasoning, and algebraic reasoning, as they solve problems and communicate their thinking.
This course will take place during the month of July and the delivery of the course material relies on technology to establish a live daily connection between the teacher and the students. Students will work in groups or as a whole class interacting with the teacher and their peers using text, audio, video and screen sharing. This live correspondence will take place in the mornings (Eastern Daylight Time), from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Students will continue with their independent work for 2 hours daily after their online time using the shared OneNote Binders, with access to video solutions from Appleby teachers and asynchronous chat with students and faculty. Feedback on homework is provided by the teacher as students work their way through the curriculum.

COVID-19 REGULATIONS
COVID-19 Regulations
The Appleby College Summer Academy offers a wide range of academic enrichment courses to suit students with different backgrounds and different needs. We are hopeful and committed to offering on campus enrichment programs in 2022 that follow all Public Health and Government COVID-19 guidelines and safety protocols and provide the highest safety standards to protect the Appleby community during these pandemic circumstances.
On campus programming will run from 8:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., Monday to Friday, unless otherwise specified. Lunch will be provided daily from the dining hall.
Our on-campus operations in 2022 will include:
- Small class sizes of no more than fifteen students per session
- Mandatory mask policy for all campers and staff, if applicable (as determined by the Government of Ontario)
- Increased hand washing built into the program schedule
- Daily screening procedures
- Individual equipment, supplies and lunches, where possible
- Consistent and thorough sanitization and cleaning protocols
*all on-campus operations are dependent on regulations from the Government of Ontario and Public Health.
As we plan for 2022 in this evolving landscape, we appreciate your patience and confidence in our team and promise to communicate openly about our planning and any changes that need to be made. We are here to answer any further questions you may have, please reach us at any time by email academy@appleby.on.ca.
SUMMER PROGRAM COMMUNITY GUIDELINES
We are dedicated to running a successful 2022 summer with the ongoing commitment of our students and staff to take care of each other and respect public health guidelines. All families agree to maximize the safety of our summer program community by:
- Abiding by current Public Health measures in day to day (non-Appleby) life, whatever they may be at the time. This may include maintaining a small “bubble” of exposure outside of the program, remaining physically distant from others and/or wearing a mask in public areas, and practicing proper hand-washing, among other measures.
- Being diligent about illness or symptoms of any kind. Just as has been the case in this school year, it is extremely important to keep students home if they are experiencing any signs of illness or symptoms. Return-to-program policies will be updated based on our local public health unit’s recommendations at the time.
- Maintaining physical distancing. Guardians should be aware that everyone has different levels of comfort regarding exposure to the virus. If a guardian must be on campus and speak to program staff, guardians should be wearing a mask and maintaining physical distance from all students and staff.
