            To the grade 11 mathematics learner


            Well done in completing the grade 10 mathematics.  I hope you had a lot of fun with the grade

            10 mathematics last year.  In grade 11 we build on the grade 10 mathematics.  If you
            encounter any problems with certain sections of grade 11 mathematics, please feel free to go

            back to your grade 10 notes.


            Grade 11 mathematics is very interesting but very difficult if grade 10 mathematics was not
            mastered at a minimum level.  The good news is that with a lot of practise and perseverance

            you will be able to do and master grade 11 topics. You will be able to deepen your

            understanding of some of the grade 10 topics.


            This material is developed with the Casio (fx) 82 es, but the Casio (fx) 82 es plus will also be
            a fine calculator to work with.  Please do not discard your calculator of last year.


            You will be assessed on all learning outcomes.  Learning Outcome One and Two will be

            tested in Paper 1.  Learning Outcome Three and Four will be tested in Paper 2.


            All grade 11 topics will be tested in the national grade 12 exam.  This year you start preparing

            for the grade 12 mathematics examinations.


            Your promotion mark at the end of grade 11 is calculated as follows:


            Portfolio:            100 Marks     (Includes: Assignments, investigation, projects, tests and Mid-year exam.)

            Paper 1               150 Marks
            Paper 2               150 Marks

            Total:                400 Marks

            Pass Mark             30% or 120 Marks.


            Please do not aim for 30% because it will limit your career choices at higher education
            centres.  Remember you need your end of grade 11 report to apply to a university.
