7th Grade Math

This course will cover the second half of 7th grade math as well as all of 8th grade. In the fall we will cover Units 1-5, which include: Statistics, Geometry, Probability, Transformations and Exponents. In January, we will start a new book and cover Units 6-10, including: Exponents in Geometry, Functions, Linear Functions, Linear Models and Tables, and finally, Solving Systems of Equations.

These 5 things will be required daily for class.

Homework Students will be expected to practice their new skills at home through homework. Homework is due at the beginning of the next class unless otherwise stated. Students will be responsible for writing the homework assignment in their agenda books at the end of class each day. All assignments will be posted online on my website as well!
