About this course
Alberta's Math 8 has four strands: number, patterns and relations, shape and space, and statistics and probability. They are split here into eight units in an order Grade 8 classes commonly use, and together they cover every outcome.
There is no provincial test in Grade 8. Your teacher sets the unit tests and the report card mark. But this is the year before the Grade 9 achievement test, and most of it is on that test: square roots, integer and fraction arithmetic without a calculator, and solving equations.
Grade 9 extends almost every idea here — square roots of fractions and decimals, exponent laws, equations with the variable on both sides, and surface area of composite objects.
Outcomes come from Alberta Education's Mathematics Kindergarten to Grade 9 Program of Studies. A new Grade 7–9 math curriculum is being piloted in some classrooms in 2026–27; this follows the one most Grade 8 classes use now.
