Why does Canada exist? This question cannot be answered without also considering the related
problem: Why does the United States exist? Why did we refuse to join the American revolution?
Why have we been able to build and keep a nation without serious conflict or a bloody civil war
while our neighbours could not? Why have we not developed into the economic and military
superpower the United States has? In short, why are we Canadians and they Americans? These
questions form the central themes of this OAC course.

No musical background is required for this course, which is designed for beginners only.
Students without previous experience on wind or percussive instruments should elect this
course. The beginning instrumental music course offers the student an opportunity to study an
instrument from one of the following families: woodwind, brass or percussion. The instruments
offered are these: oboe, bassoon, flute, clarinet, alto and tenor saxophone, bass clarinet,
trumpet, French horn, trombone, euphonium, tuba and various percussive instruments. In some
schools, bass guitar may be available for study. Instruments will be assigned by the teacher
following a review of aptitude survey scores, certain physical necessities, student choices and the
need for well - balanced instrumentation. The main emphasis of the course will be on the
acquisition of basic instrumental techniques through performance. Non - performance areas of
study will include rudiments, ear training and rhythmic dictation, music appreciation and music
history.

This course is generally designed to meet the needs of students entering high school with the
equivalent of one or two years of music instruction at the middle school level (or the equivalent of
private lessons). The students in this course will advance their technique through selected
methods books and band repertoire. Students will expand their knowledge of music rudiment
and history through various performing, listening, written, and creative activities. Students will be
encouraged to participate in junior performing ensembles because the additional practice time
every week will help to develop instrumental technique.
Students will be required to purchase a theory workbook and a technique book. All other

Grade 9 Physical and Health Education is compulsory and must be completed successfully before
gaining an OS1S credit. Students may take only ONE physical education course per year.
However, courses in Outdoor Education, Dance or Health may be taken in addition to a physical
education course.
In Grades 11 and 12 more depth in team sports is emphasized. Aspects of coaching, theory,
refereeing and appreciation of the sport are stressed. Many individual and carry-over sports are
introduced, as well, with the hope that students will continue active participation in these sports
once they leave high school; i.e., badminton, golf, archery, judo, and personal fitness.
Any field trips offered in physical education classes are optional and must be student - funded.
It is strongly recommended that a health course be taken in conjunction with physical education at
the senior level. (N.B.- -PEH4A and PEH3A will fulfil the compulsory Senior Social Science credit
requirement.)
The Physical and Health Education Department provides an umbrella concept under which are
the following broad areas of student involvement:
- the academic program; i.e., dance, skill technology, fitness;
- the intramural recreation/games program;
- the interscholastic sports program;
- the health studies program;
- the outdoor education program.
Through these programs, the Physical and Health Education Department hopes to provide the
student with intellectual, social and physical challenges so that the student may be better
prepared for his /her future role as a profitable member of society.

The aims of the Science program are to help each student
develop an understanding of the processes of science;
develop skills which are essential for participation in scientific work and
technology;
acquire facility in problem - solving through science;
acquire the basic knowledge needed to function in a scientific and
technological world;
gain respect for the environment and a commitment to the wise use of
resources;
acquire an understanding of the nature of science as a human
endeavour;
develop an appreciation of technology as the application of scientific
knowledge and principles;
develop an ability to locate and retrieve scientific information;
develop an awareness of the career possibilities in the field of science
and technology;
develop an awareness of how the knowledge of science enhances
personal life management;
develop a sensitivity about science and its influence on societal issues
and values.
Preferred routes through the Secondary School Science program
For all students, it is strongly recommended that they proceed through the secondary school
science program by first taking a Grade 9 science course, then a Grade 10 science course, and
finally senior science courses as desired. Two science credits are necessary for an Ontario
Secondary School Diploma (OSSD). It is anticipated that the majority of students will choose to
take grade 9 and 10 science to meet this requirement.
