Grade 9: provide your child with a great educational base with tools & connections to move on with confidence

Grade

Grade 9 will provide your child with not only a great educational base, but also the tools and connections to move into their next chapter with confidence. Unlike mainstream schools, Euka will become a connection with work opportunities, apprenticeships, traineeships and pathways into university for your child. Grade 9 students complete core subjects and a number of electives.

Core Subjects include: English, Maths, Science, History, Geography, Personal Development Health and Physical Education, and Innovative Career Development Program (Launch Pad).

With 140 electives offered, specifically sourced from various providers all over the world, you can be sure they are top quality programs. Electives give students the opportunity to discover where their interests, passions and abilities are best channelled.

All subjects are included and Grade 9 features Inspiring Novels in English, Maths investigations, Science experiments in Biology/Chemistry/Physics and Earth Sciences, History research, Geography explorations, Artistic creations, Health discoveries and PE Skill building. In addition, Grade 9 also introduces the two new subjects of Business/Economics and Civics/Citizenship.

Grade 9 is full of carefully designed lessons covering the full Australian curriculum and allowing more choice.

Curriculum

English

This year the students will be focussing on some inspirational Novels. Each Novel has been carefully chosen to build character to allow students to be uplifted and to provide literature that is uplifting. As they study each Novel for a Term, it is vital to Euka that those Novels provide great building blocks in the students own life. The Grade 9 program allows them to respond to what they are reading, in practical ways. They will show their understanding through comprehension activities, and reflect on the plot, characters and themes through creative projects like making posters, theme songs, T-shirts with character profiles and many more engaging activities.

Mathematics

Grade 9 maths is a hands-on continuation of maths principles the students have discovered in the younger grades. Students can choose between the Grade 9 Maths program, Advanced Maths or Life skills Maths (Maths in the real world). The focus is on presenting each topic in a relevant, enjoyable and meaningful way. With the addition of the multi-grade, online program, Mathspace, students can not only work on the Grade 9 program but extend themselves or catch up on any maths aspects they need revision on. Maths is best taught as an exciting opportunity to learn more about our world.

Science

Our Grade 9 program features experiments, individual research projects and many new ways to use the knowledge gained during lessons. We cover the Biological Sciences, Chemical Sciences, Earth and Space Sciences and Physical Sciences, throughout the year; topics such as Cells, Energy transfer and Chemistry Compounds. By Grade 9 they are busy developing their own experiments and methods of recording. Euka makes Science come to life!

HASS

History

This year, through major studies in the making of the modern world, the Industrial revolution, Asia and the World and WWI, students will discover the fascinating aspects of history. The information they learn will be used in relevant, creative ways that encourage active input into their own uncovering of history.

Geography (Term 2 & 4)

Research and understanding of Environmental change and Management as well as the Geography of human well-being will be explored. Learning about culture, climate, tourism, resources and trade, and how the geography of various countries impact these issues. The Grade 9 Geography program allows the student to have a greater understanding of our country’s relationship with others.

Health

Grade 9 health involves investigating strategies to manage their own personal, physical and social changes that occur during this time of their lives. Opening up family discussions on issues that are important enable the student to make wise choices now and into their future.

PDHPE

The student is given the chance to develop their own fitness log, and learn how to adjust exercise to gain the best advantage. Many skills are refined and students are also encouraged to decide to work on their own personal fitness activities and goals. The inclusion of personal fitness activities outside of the Euka program is acknowledged and valued.

Launchpad

The Launchpad program will provide connections to TAFE, University pathways and career development. We are excited about providing real stepping stones to enable students to move from school learning into Higher Learning or the workforce with confidence.
