Learning Objectives
Advanced Math II is the advanced math course for 7th graders preparing to take Algebra 1 in 8th grade. This course is a rigorous exploration of pre-algebra skills including rules of exponents, Pythagorean Theorem and its applications, square roots, types of transformations and sequences of transformations, angles and transversals, linear equations, functions and an introduction to systems of equations. In addition to those topics the traditional 7th grade curriculum, including integers, rational numbers, inequalities, single variable equations, ratios and proportions, percents, and statistics and probability are explored.
Students who maintain a grade of 85 and continue to show an engaged and enthusiastic work ethic will be recommended for Algebra 1, a high school level honors course, in their 8th grade year.
I&E
I&E
I&E assignments (or Intervention and Enrichment assignments) are given each week. Students are assigned 1 to 5 skills based on their diagnostic scores in IXL. These skills are different for each student based on their strengths or weaknesses. Many skills assigned are not taught directly in class but are meant to be a review to prepare students for upcoming lessons or to strengthen foundational skills.
Each week on topic or strand is selected by Mr. Gorelick and students are assigned skills from that topic or strand. The strands are Geometry, the Number System, Expressions and Equations, Ratios and Proportional Relationships, Statistics and Probability and Functions.
Because each student is assigned individualized skills, no late work will be accepted. All skills will be assigned by the first school day of the week and will be due at 2PM on the last school day of the week. (Usually Monday and Friday respectively.)
