Welcome to 7th grade math. We are off to a great start.
The first unit of the year was numbers and operations. For our second unit we were solving algebraic equations. Our 3rd unit is Surface area and volume of 3 dimensional shapes.
Here is the overall plan for our 7th grade year:

|
Integers (Accentuate the Negative), order of operations, square numbers, square roots, and scientific notation |
|
Solving equations – including distributive

Stretching and shrinking Mini unit w/ Kaleidoscopes, hubcaps (symmetry) and angles
|
|
Comparing and Scaling Proportions/percents |
|
What Do You Expect (Probability) |
|
Data distribution
|
|
Moving Straight Ahead (Linear relationships) |
Here is a link to prin some graph paper. Graph Paper
FYI.
Here is a list of some good math websites that are useful for math skills practice, checking how to do homework and some fun games (really!).
The CMP website is quite nice. www.phschool.com/cmp2
www.coolmath.com – in the games section try rush, it is like rush hour and really fun. Another good games is PHIT. Very good for improving spatial reasoning
