7th Grade Pre-Algebra
Instructor: Katie Verlin
Curriculum Map, Class Page
In PreAlgebra, students use technology to analyze real world data using mathematics. They will begin the year studying the principles of Algebra. They will draw models to facilitate the transition of the concrete mathematical operations that they have learned in previous years into the abstract concepts of Algebra problem solving. They study the coordinate place and linear functions.
In the 2nd trimester students solve multi-step equations to enable them to problem solve with percents and proportions. They investigate squares, square roots, and the properties of exponents. They study data in more depth and create various types of graphs by hand and with spreadsheet programs to represent data.
In the 3rd trimester, students graph lines on the coordinate plane. They study non-linear functions and culminate their study with a parent graph summary. They investigate geometric figures in the coordinate plane and work on scaling geometric figures.
