Time is divided between the continuous development of reading, writing, listening, speaking and viewing and representing skills. Written skills include the process of logical and clear explanation and description, correct grammatical structure, expression and the defense of thought. Listening and oral skills are developed through discussion, and debate. Through the use of novels, short stories, drama and poetry, we examine problems and themes that apply to living in society. Students are encouraged to formulate and defend their own ideas which develop from the literature section of the course. English 20F (ENG20F) (1.5 credit) (Course includes credit for Print Communication 25S) All Grade 10 students must earn this credit to graduate. A variety of forms of text (short stories, novels, plays, film, poetry, articles) are used to help students develop both their analytical and creative skills. Terms related to language are studied in detail. Each student will produce a number of short assignments as well as an extensive development of a short story, a formal speech and an expository essay. English 30S Comprehensive (LAC30S) (1 credit) This course addresses pragmatic (functional) and aesthetic (creative) purposes and texts in an approximate balance. Student product will be approximately 50% pragmatic through exposition and analysis and 50% esthetic (creative) through creation and expression.
English 30S Transactional (LAT30S) (1 credit) The transactional focus uses text (materials) that are 70% pragmatic (functional) and 30% aesthetic (creative) with 100% of student output being pragmatic through explaining, analyzing, planning and presenting, informing and persuading. English 40S Transactional (ENG40S) (1 credit) The emphasis in this course is on the transactional (language used to inform, explain, analyze, present and persuade). A variety of texts and articles will be used associated with career planning, business, research, novel, drama, and debating. Learning outcomes are similar to the Grade 11 course. However, the course content, processes, and skills utilized reflect a higher level of expectations for Grade 12 students. As well, students must write a Provincial Exam which comprises 30% of their final mark. *A skills portfolio must also be completed. English 40S Comprehensive (ENG40S) (1 credit) English Language Arts: Comprehensive Focus The direction and content of this course is similar to that of the Grade 11 course. However, an emphasis is on Canadian content. Debating may also be offered in this course. Expectations and assessment will reflect that which is demanded of Grade 12 students. As above, students must write a Provincial Exam which comprises 30% of their final mark. *A skills portfolio must also be completed. English 40S Literary (ENG 40S) (1 credit) This course is designed for students who enjoy working with traditional literature (novels, short stories, poetry and plays, including Shakespeare) and non-fictional, transactional materials. Assignments will include both literary and transactional approaches with a focus on aesthetic texts and writing. Students will write the English 12 Provincial Standards Test as the final exam for this course.

SCIENCE
Sciences de la Nature 10F (SCN10F) (1 credit) / Science 10F (SCI10F) (1 credit)
Le programme des sciences naturelles de Secondaire 1 présente un ensemble de thèmes
et de concepts dans le domaine de la biologie, de la physique, de la chimie, et de la
science de l’espace. Certains de ces concepts seront étudiés en profondeur, mais les
concepts scientifiques plus complexes seront l’objet d’études spécialisées au niveau
secondaire. Un des buts principaux de l’étude des sciences naturelles au niveau pré-
sécondaire est d’entreprendre des études plus avancées au niveau secondaire.
Le programme des sciences de la nature est basé sur l’éxpérience. Il doit tenir compte
non seulement du “quoi” mais aussi du “comment” dans l’enseignement des sciences.
C’est aussi un programme qui passera donc des notions relativement simples à des
notions plus complexes, du concret à l’abstrait.
Ce cours est divisé en 4 unités:
1. Chimie – les atomes et les éléments et l’étude du tableau périodique
2. Physique – la nature de l’éléctrostatique
3. Biologie – la reproduction et la génétique
4. L’Espace – l’exporation de l’Univers
The students will be introduced to biology, physics, chemistry and space sciences.
The program is based on experiments and experience. Students must see not only the
“what” but also the “how”. The program passes from relatively simple concepts to those
which are more complex, from the concrete to the abstract.
This course is divided into 4 units:
1. Chemistry – atoms, elements and the study of the periodic table
2. Physics – the nature of electricity and electrostatics
3. Biology- reproduction and genetics
4. Space – exploration of the universeSciences de la Nature 20F (SCN20F) (1 credit)/ Science 20F (SCI20F) (1 credit)
Sciences de la Nature est un cours obligatoire pour tous les élèves de secondaire 2. Le
cours est construit autour du développement de compétence/habilités dans le domaine
de la littérature scientifique, communication, résolution de problèmes, relation humaine
et technologie.
Les unités sont:
1. La dynamique des écosystèmes
2. La chimie
3. La physique du mouvement
4. La dynamique métérologique
Science 20F is a mandatory course for all Grade 10 students. The Science course has

The core units are: 1. Ecology 2. Genetics 3. Taxonomy: The Five Kingdoms of Life (plants, animals, bacteria, fungi and protists) Although this course has a heavy content component, a great deal of emphasis is placed upon lab work and cooperative learning. Research skills are important and some project work will be assigned. Students will have the opportunity to “practice” science. Pré-requis: Biologie 30S n'est pas nécessaire, cependant il est recommandé. Les unités de base sont: 1. Écologie 2. Génétique 3. Taxonomie: Les Cinq Royaumes de la vie (plantes, animaux, bactéries, champignons et protistes) Bien que ce cours a une forte composante de contenu, beaucoup d'accent est mis sur le travail de laboratoire et l'apprentissage coopératif. Compétences en matière de recherche sont importants et certains travaux et projets seront donnés.
Chemistry 30S (CHE30S) (1 credit)
Chemistry 30S is designed to build on what students know and are able to do as a result
of their studies in Science 10F and Senior Science 20F. Students will learn the facts,
formulas, and principles that make up the high school chemistry curriculum. This
course will give students a much greater depth of understanding of the world around

Le Canada dans le monde contemporain
Les élèves de secondaire 1 explorent les possibilités et les enjeux du Canada
contemporain en examinant les éléments démographiques, politiques, sociaux et
culturels du pays. Les élèves considèrent diverses perspectives sur une variété de
questions telles que les idéaux démocratiques et les droits de la personne, la présence et
l'influence francophones, l'autonomie gouvernementale autochtone, le
multiculturalisme, la sécurité sociale et la qualité de vie, les relations majoritaires –
minoritaires, les médias de masse et le rôle du Canada dans le monde. En étudiant les
interactions et institutions qui façonnent la société canadienne, les élèves participent à
des discussions sur la culture et l'identité au Canada. Ils explorent également ce que
signifie pour eux la citoyenneté canadienne et réfléchissent sur les principaux facteurs
qui influent sur leur identité. Au cours de cette enquête, les élèves enrichiront leur
compréhension de la citoyenneté et de l'identité dans le contexte communautaire,
canadien et mondial. Les élèves seront ainsi mieux en mesure de devenir des citoyennes
ou citoyens informés, actifs et responsables dans une démocratie pluraliste.
