ENGLISH

English courses at Harbord C.I. are designed to help students gain increasing competence
in thinking, writing, reading, speaking and listening, to appreciate a wide range of
literature both contemporary and from the past, and to develop critical thinking skills in
response to the media.

Students are encouraged to read broadly in the personal reading program and to practice
many types of writing. In all English courses, students are expected to proofread and
revise their written work and to develop an increasing sensitivity to style. Apart from
writing folder activities, tests and exams, evaluation is also based on group work, oral
reports, and independent study projects.

CORE FRENCH AND INTERNATIONAL LANGUAGES
Harbord Collegiate has been designated an International Languages School in the Toronto District
School Board and the French and International Languages Department firmly believes, as does the
Ministry of Education, that good communication skills are necessary for success in life. All students
are encouraged to investigate studying a third language in high school as a way to develop their
communication skills.

To help develop these skills, courses are offered in Portuguese and Spanish in addition to French.
Learning another language develops logical thinking skills and clarity of expression. It also
introduces students to a dynamic new way of seeing the world through the study of other cultures,
resulting in a growth of tolerance and understanding of others. In Canada, a bilingual country,
employment opportunities and promotions are enhanced by knowledge of both English and French.
With developing world trade patterns, knowledge of other languages, particularly French, Spanish
and Portuguese, opens up many employment and business opportunities.

Portuguese is unique to Harbord. The Spanish program is equally dynamic and exciting. The study
of a second/third language has shown to be a benefit to students as they hone and improve their skills
in their first language, as well as a benefit in all aspects of their personal and professional lives.

As beginner International Language classes are open to students in both Grades 9 and 10, it is
possible to obtain a Grade 12 credit one year early.

    Co-operative Education is a program that brings together classroom theory with practical
experience in the workplace. The program is based on a partnership between the school and
business/industry/non-profit and social sectors, and involves the participation of students, teachers
and employers. It allows students to gain practical experience that will help them in their decision-
making process regarding their future educational and career choices. Students undertake a full year
in a Co-operative Education placement. They divide their time between school and the employer,
usually spending one half of every other day at a placement. Students taking Co-op will not miss
time in other subjects when they are at their placements.

     Co-op students earn two senior-level credits towards their graduation diploma in a subject area
that is related to their placement with an employer. Co-op students are required to complete
workplace and school assignments as part of their responsibilities in the program. Co-op is offered in
all subject areas, providing that suitable placements can be found.

    Students interested in taking Co-operative Education should give careful thought to the planning
of their third and fourth years of study. Students need to consider their time commitment to Co-op
and their overall workload, in order to balance Co-op with the demands of their other senior courses.
Students must go through an application and interview process and show that their level of maturity,
independence and attendance/punctuality history is at an acceptable level, in order to be accepted for
a Co-op placement. See page 27 for more information on the application process.

HEALTH AND PHYSICAL EDUCATION
  The Health and Physical Education programs at Harbord C.I. are designed as an inclusive,
  challenging way of exploring and experiencing a wide variety of physical activities and health
  topics.
  The Grade 9 and 10 Healthy Active Living Education courses lay a strong foundation of personal
  fitness, physical literacy, skill development, and healthy personal and psychological
  development.
  The Grade 11 and 12 Healthy Active Living Education courses build on the foundations laid in
  grades 9 and 10, however depending on the particular stream different physical activities and
  health topics are addressed. These courses place special emphasis on how students can maintain
  the habits of healthy, active living throughout their lives as they make the transition to adulthood
  and independent living.
  The Introductory Kinesiology (PSK4U) course focuses on the study of human movement and of
  systems, factors, and principles involved in human development. Students will learn about the
  effects of physical activity on health and performance.
  The Recreation and Healthy Active Living Leadership (PLF4M) course enables students to
  explore the benefits of lifelong participation in active recreation and healthy leisure and to
  develop the leadership and coordinating skills needed to plan, organize, and safely implement
  recreational events and other activities related to healthy, active living.
  Students can take two Health and Physical Education courses concurrently.

MUSIC
    Harbord’s music courses have been designed to foster the love and enjoyment of music
through performance, listening and composition.

    The performance segment provides an opportunity for musical expression either vocal or
instrumental. By physically involving themselves in the production of music, students achieve an
immediate emotional response to a given work of musical art. Opportunities are provided in
classes for solo, chamber and large ensembles and everyone is encouraged to take an active part
in the extracurricular program in which many public performances are scheduled both in and
away from the school.

Grade 9 (Year 1) Band (AMI1O1)

This beginning course (AMI1O1) requires no previous musical experience. AMI1O3 requires
previous experience. Students learn basic playing and reading skills culminating in band
performances at the spring concert.

                                                SCIENCE
The Harbord Science Department offers a rich program supporting scientific literacy for all. Students are
encouraged to choose a learning path which best accommodates their skills and interests.
 All our courses focus on three main goals, as stated in the Ontario Curriculum:
    1. to relate science to technology, society, and the environment
    2. to develop the skills, strategies, and habits of mind required for scientific inquiry
    3. to understand the basic concepts of science

 In Grades 9 and 10, students study four disciplines of science: earth and space science, biology, chemistry,
 and physics. These disciplines can be studied further and more in depth in Grade 11 and 12. Diverse
 instructional approaches are used to construct meaningful learning experiences for all students. It is the
 goal of the department to instill in students a sense of wonder about the natural and physical world around
 them.

SOCIAL AND GLOBAL STUDIES DEPARTMENT
              HISTORY, GEOGRAPHY, SOCIAL SCIENCES AND HUMANITIES COURSES

              The department offers a wide variety of courses for the students to choose from.

              The skills and values that students develop by taking courses offered by the History,
              Geography, Social Sciences and Humanities section of the Social and Global Studies
              Department will prepare them for the future by making them critical thinkers and
              responsible citizens.

              Civics is a compulsory half-credit for grade 10 students. In this course, students will
              explore what it means to be a “responsible citizen” in the provincial, national and global
              context. The year two compulsory Canadian History since World War I course
              explores the development of the Canadian identity, Canada’s development as a nation,
              and Canada’s involvement in global events. Through debates, role playing, report
              writing, oral presentations, simulations and a variety of assignments, students will
              develop skills in conducting research, organizing ideas, communicating and thinking
              critically.

              Evaluation in all courses is ongoing throughout the year and is based on homework, a
              variety of individual assignments, group work, research projects, tests, and examinations.
              Students are expected to come to class prepared with the necessary equipment and all
              assigned work completed.

VISUAL ARTS
        Visual Arts courses are open for Grade 9 and 10. AVI3M1 is a prerequisite for AV14M1.
        For students who plan to pursue Visual Arts at the postsecondary level, it is

        processes, theory, art criticism/analysis, and art history.

        In grade 11, students refine their knowledge of processes, materials and learn creative
        problem solving skills with a range of media.

        The grade 12 course enhances student’s skill and knowledge with a variety of art and
        design methods that are related to aspects of contemporary society and its issues through
        various media.
