Course Currilcum
-
- Topic 1: Mappings and Relations Details 1 year
- Mapping and relations are very important because they develop a connection between related items, objects or numbers. In this topic, you will be able to understand and use arrow diagrams/ mappings to represent relations and functions.
- Topic 2: Vectors and Translations Details 1 year
- In this topic, you should be able to understand the nature of vectors, manipulate and represent them in order to define translation.
- Topic 3: Graphs Details 1 year
- Graphs provide an effective way to gain a real understanding of data. Graphing in mathematics helps learners develop deeper analytical skills towards problem solving, especially where a decision is to be made.
- Topic 4: Numerical Concepts 1 (Indices) Details 1 year
- In this topic, you will learn numerical concepts and how to give answers to the calculations using certain criteria such as rough estimate based on significant figures or decimal places. You will also understand and use indices and standard form.

- Topics 5: Inequalities and Regions Details 1 year
- In this section. you learn about Inequalities. Including the symbols used In writing inequalities, writing inequalities using variables and row Inequalities Can be useful In real work You will find symbols such as c, s. which all have different meanings
- Topic 6: Algebra 2 Details 1 year
- In this topic, you will understand and use the expansion of algebraic expressions to form and solve quadratic equations.
- Topic 7: Similarities and Enlargement Details 1 year
- In this topic, you will be able to understand similarities, enlargement and apply relationships between length, areas and volumes of similar shapes and objects.
- Topic 8: The Circle Details 1 year
- In your daily life, you have often seen circle objects and shapes. If the Uganda currency coins of UGX 1000, UGX 500, UGX 200 and UGX 100 are traced on paper, a circular shape is obtained.
- TOPIC 9: Rotation Details 1 year
- The mode of operation for most machines is based on rotation. When parts of a machine rotate, it means they will shift from one point to another.
- Topic 10: Length and Area Properties of Two-dimensional Geometrical Figures Details 1 year
- In this topic, you will use the same knowledge to understand, justify and apply area and perimeter formulae for such different length and figures.
- Topic 11: Nets, Areas and Volumes of Solids Details 1 year
- In this topic, you will learn Nets, Areas and Volumes of Solids, develop the skills of drawing and making two- and three-dimensional shapes and explore their properties. Knowledge of these properties will enable you to solve problems involving solids.
- Topic 12: Numerical Concept 2 (Surds) Details 1 year
- In this topic, you will study how to manipulate quantities, expressions and numerical concepts without exact square roots so as to be able to express such lengths more appropriately.
- Topic 13: Set Theory Details 1 year
- Set theory is an important topic for every human being. Shopkeepers, market vendors, manufacturers and even agriculturalists use sets in their everyday work in one way or another.
