Assessments

In 7th grade, students learn to construct, solve and interpret proportions and two step equations using rational numbers in order to apply and represent these skills in real world situations including statistics, percent, geometry and probability.

Formative and/or Summative Assessments,

Reengagement & Reassessment

Equivalent Expressions Focused Interim Assessment Block (FIAB):  Consider giving instead of chapter tests or quizzes.  

Consider using this assessment throughout instruction in an unstandardized administation - whole class, small group or select items individually.

Equivalent Expressions (FIAB) Reengagement Day:  Do instead of a review day before the assessment.

Reengagement One Pager   See document.

Reengagement Template (One Slide)  See slides.

Need to Do a Class Review for your Next Big Summative Assessment? Instead of wasting time and boring students with a comprehensive review, provide those notes and try something different instead.  Rather than reviewing first and then doing a practice test, consider giving the practice test first and then reengaging around the results for a more targeted and engaging review. 

Algebraic Expressions & Equations Focused Interim Assessment Block (FIAB): Consider giving instead of chapter tests or quizzes.

Cumulative Assessment #1: Site / teacher created.  Please submit to the design team, email dmattoon@hemetusd.org

To save time in this relatively short unit, consider giving the Stats & Probability FIAB instead of any quizzes, chapter tests or site-created cumulative assessment.

Cumulative Assessment Reengagement Day:  Do instead of a review day before the first assessment.

Guidelines for Creating your Own Assesment in Claim 1

7.EE.A.1 Apply properties of operations as strategies to add, subtract, factor, and expand linear expressions with rational coefficients.

7.EE.B.4a Use variables to represent quantities in a real-world or mathematical problem, and construct simple equations and inequalities to solve problems by reasoning about the quantities.


a. Solve word problems leading to equations of the form px + q = r and p(x + q) = r, where p, q, and r are specific rational numbers. Solve equations of these forms fluently.  Compare an algebraic solution to an arithmetic solution, identifying the sequence of the operations used in each approach.  For example, the perimeter of a rectangle is 54cm. Its length is 6 cm. What is its width?

Embed 7.G.B.5 with 7.EE.B4a Use facts about supplementary, complementary, vertical, and adjacent angles in a multi-step problem to write and solve simple equations for an unknown angle in a figure.

7.EE.B.4b Use variables to represent quantities in a real-world or mathematical problem, and construct simple equations and inequalities to solve problems by reasoning about the quantities.


b. Solve word problems leading to inequalities of the form px + q > r or px + q < r, where p, q, and r are specific rational numbers. Graph the solution set of the inequality and interpret it in the context of the problem.  For example: As a salesperson, you are paid $50 per week plus $3 per sale. This week you want your pay to be at least $100. Give an inequality for the number of sales you need to make, and describe the solutions.

7.G.B.4 Know the formulas for the area and circumference of a circle and use them to solve problems; give an informal derivation of the relationship between the circumference and area of a circle.

7.G.B.6 Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving area, volume and surface area of two- and three-dimensional objects composed of triangles, quadrilaterals, polygons, cubes, and right prisms.
