Mathematics
The primary focal points at Grade 7 are numbers and operations; proportionality, expressions, equations, and relationships; and measurement and data. Students use concepts, algorithms, and properties of rational numbers to explore mathematical relationships and to describe increasingly complex situations. Students use concepts of proportionality and algebraic thinking to explore, develop, and communicate mathematical relationships, including…
