Course Description
The Math 7 curriculum links to and builds on students’ previous work with rates and ratios, rational numbers, fundamental algebraic and geometric concepts, and statistical thinking. Areas of focus for this course are applying proportional relationships, understanding and working with linear equations, solving geometric problems, and drawing inferences about populations based on samples. In order to strengthen the foundation needed for the formal study of algebra and geometry, students are challenged to think and reason about mathematics, work collaboratively, and solve meaningful problems.
Topics we will cover:
Operations with Rational Numbers
Expressions
Equations and Inequalities
Ratios and Proportions
Percents
Probability
Statistics
Geometry Shapes and Angles
Surface Area and Volume
