Introduction
How to use this Supplementary Support Resource. This webpage directs you to supplementary resources for the Grade 10 Applied (and Pre-Calculus) class, it is not meant to replace actual class. It is a portal to links that support the Grade 10 Mathematics Curriculum. Many of the links here will still be useful in your Grades 11 and 12 Studies.
Distraction. Do not get distracted additional links in the page which you are sent to. I have tried to avoid pages with excessive advertisements and pop-ups.
Comprehension. I have chosen pages that are generally at the suitable academic level and in the context of the Manitoba curriculum. If you see a few concepts that are baffling don’t worry; …maybe we have not covered that yet.
Videos. Do not count on videos to save your bacon! Watching someone else do it is not the same as you actually doing it!
