In seventh grade, students enhance their algebraic foundation. This course broadens understanding of rational numbers through exponents, scientific notation, and square roots. Students develop proportional reasoning to solve problems that include scale model, dilations, percentages, and other contextual situations. Moving from solving one step equations in sixth grade, students solve two step equations and inequalities. The concept of functions and their multiple representations is explored. Additional topics in grade seven include proportional reasoning, classifying quadrilaterals, area, surface area and volume of figures. Students will focus on data and statistical literacy. Students who successfully complete Math 7 should be prepared to study Algebra I in grade eight. An advanced course is also available.
