Additional Topics for Grade 9

These topics build foundational skills in logic and algorithmic thinking, which are highly useful for
developing problem-solving skills and a programming mindset early on.

1. Mathematical Logic (Extension)

1.1 Logical Statements and Operators

1.1.1 Understand and apply basic logical operators: AND, OR, and NOT.

1.1.2 Learn about the XOR (exclusive OR) operator and identify situations where it applies.

1.1.3 Recognize implications (IF...THEN statements) and their role in logic and programming.

1.2 Negations and Contradictions

1.2.1 Define negations and understand how to negate simple statements.

1.2.2 Recognize contradictions and identify statements that contradict each other.

1.2.3 Practice rewriting statements to form their logical negations.

2. Introduction to Algorithms and Pseudocode

2.1 Basic Algorithms

2.1.1 Understand what an algorithm is and why it’s important in solving problems.

2.1.2 Learn basic algorithms, such as finding the maximum or minimum in a list.

2.1.3 Use algorithms to perform simple calculations, like summing elements in an array.

2.2 Writing Pseudocode

2.2.1 Define pseudocode and its purpose as a tool for planning algorithms.

2.2.2 Write pseudocode for simple processes, such as calculating averages or checking for even/odd
numbers.
2.2.3 Translate word problems into pseudocode to build problem-solving skills.

Additional Topics for Grade 10

In Grade 10, these extensions deepen logical reasoning and introduce structured approaches to
algorithmic design, setting a solid foundation for advanced math and computer science topics.

1. Mathematical Logic (Advanced Extensions)

1.3 Simple Proofs

1.3.1 Construct simple proofs by applying logical reasoning and mathematical operations.

1.3.2 Practice proving simple properties (e.g., sum of two even numbers is even).

1.3.3 Identify basic proof techniques, such as direct proof and proof by contradiction.

2. Advanced Flowchart and Algorithm Design

2.3 Flowcharts

2.3.1 Understand flowchart symbols (e.g., process, decision, start/end) and their uses.

2.3.2 Create flowcharts for simple algorithms, such as sorting or searching tasks.

2.3.3 Use flowcharts to represent conditional statements and loops visually.
