Course description

Course Overview:

"Grade 7 Math First to Fourth Quarter" is a comprehensive year-long course designed to provide seventh-grade students with a solid foundation in key mathematical concepts. The curriculum is divided into four quarters, each focusing on specific areas such as number operations, algebraic thinking, geometry, and probability and statistics. Through engaging lessons, hands-on activities, and real-world applications, students will develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills essential for academic success in math.

Key Learning Objectives:

1. First Quarter: Number Operations and Fractions

   • Understand and perform operations with rational numbers, including addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
   • Apply knowledge of fractions, decimals, and percentages in various contexts.

2. Second Quarter: Ratios, Proportions, and Algebraic Thinking

   • Develop a strong understanding of ratios and proportional relationships.
   • Simplify and evaluate algebraic expressions, and solve simple equations and inequalities.

3. Third Quarter: Geometry and Measurement

   • Explore concepts of geometry including angle relationships, properties of triangles, and the Pythagorean theorem.
   • Understand and calculate area, volume, and surface area of geometric figures.

4. Fourth Quarter: Probability and Statistics

   • Analyze and interpret data using measures of central tendency and variability.
   • Understand and apply basic concepts of probability, including experimental and theoretical probability.

Requirements:

• Prerequisites: Completion of Grade 6 Math or equivalent foundational knowledge.
• Materials Needed: Standard school supplies such as pencils, paper, calculator, graph paper, and access to geometry tools (compass, protractor).
• Parental Involvement: Encouraged to support and monitor their child’s progress.
