Alberta math, Grades 9–12
The official outcomes for each course, straight from Alberta's program of studies, and which Not Cooked unit teaches each one.
Math 10C
The combined Grade 10 course — leads to Math 20-1 or Math 20-2.
Measurement
General outcome: Develop spatial sense and proportional reasoning.

Solve problems that involve linear measurement, using: SI and imperial units of measure; estimation strategies; measurement strategies.
- M2
Apply proportional reasoning to problems that involve conversions between SI and imperial units of measure.
- M3
Solve problems, using SI and imperial units, that involve the surface area and volume of 3-D objects, including: right cones; right cylinders; right prisms; right pyramids; spheres.
- M4
