INTRODUCTION
The 7th grade math class will focus on developing understanding of and applying proportional relationships; developing understanding of operations with rational numbers and working with expressions and linear equations; solving problems involving scale drawings and informal geometric constructions, and working with two- and three-dimensional shapes to solve problems involving area, surface area, and volume; and continue to develop understanding of statistical thinking by drawing inferences about populations based on samples.
This curriculum guide is standards based which reflects the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics, the Mathematical Practices that are expected to be used in teaching mathematics K-12 are as follows and infused throughout the guide:
Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. Use appropriate tools strategically. Reason abstractly and quantitatively. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. Model with mathematics. Attend to precision. Look for and make use of structure. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
Mathematics Grade 7 – Academic 4
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
The purpose of the revision was to further integrate the practice standards as well as incorporate technology in a meaningful way to enhance instruction and learning.
Learning mathematics with understanding is essential to enable students to problem solve. Students learn mathematics by doing not just by listening and memorizing. When mathematical facts are connected, taught in a contextual setting, applied to real world application and infuse technology knowledge is more likely retained.

Essential Questions Enduring Understandings
What are the types of rational numbers? What kinds of problems can be solved by adding/subtracting the different types of rational numbers?
Which models and relationships help make sense of multiplying and
dividing positive and negative rational numbers? When multiplying and dividing integers, how do you determine the sign?
When is it most helpful to use each representation - fractions, decimals,
percents?
Rational numbers are positive and negative numbers including decimals, and zero. Positive and negative rational numbers can be used in real life application when dealing with temperature, height above or below sea level, money earned or spent, etc..
Repeated addition can represent the operation of multiplication which can also be modeled on a number line. The inverse operations of multiplication and division establish a pattern for the products and quotients.
Fractions are used in part to whole comparisons. Percents can be used to compare fractions with different denominators by converting the fractions first to percents. Decimals are useful when comparing the fractional form of a number to the decimal form. Decimals are often useful when calculating with money, measurements, and weights.

Essential Questions Enduring Understandings
What is a rate? What kinds of real world relationships are rates?
What is the constant of proportionality? How can you distinguish
relationships that are proportional from relationships that are not proportional?
When is it most convenient to use percents?
A rate is the ratio between two different quantities that have units (related quantities). Real-world relationships that are rates include unit price, scale models, recipe measurements, etc.
The constant value of the ratio of two proportional quantities is the constant of proportionality. The constant of proportionality tells you that two quantities are proportional which can translate to the coordinate plane by the following: o the ratio of each y-value to its corresponding x-value is the same throughout
the corresponding table o the graph showing the relationship between two quantities is a straight line
that passes through the origin, and o the equation can be written in the form y = mx.
It is most convenient to use percents when making comparisons.

UNIT 4: Expand students’ understanding of Geometry to incorporate scale drawings, constructions, relationships between two- and three-dimensional figures, circles, angles, area, surface area, and volume with a strong emphasis on real world application.
Essential Questions Enduring Understandings
How to best describe relationships between the angles formed by intersecting lines? Are some relationships more useful than others in certain situations?
By definition, what is a circle?
What information do you need to know to be able to draw a
unique figure?
How can three dimensional objects be measured? Are there
some measurements that are more useful in specific situations than others?
Angle relationships are characterized by their measures. They can occur in pairs such as adjacent, complementary, supplementary and vertical.
A circle is a “set of points” each equidistant from a fixed point - the center - that all lie in the same plane. The radius determines the length of the diameter, the circumference, and the area all of which can be used to describe the size of a circle.
Needed information to draw a unique figure includes: side lengths or height of the figure, the relationship of the sides to each other, angle relationships and the direction the figure is facing.
Three-dimensional figures can be measured by their surface area and volume. Surface area is more useful when you want to know how much of the surface of the figure you can cover. Volume is more useful when you want to know how much space it takes up or how much space is inside it.

UNIT 5: Expand students’ knowledge of Statistics and Probability to include making inferences about populations and probability models as well as apply concepts to real world application.
Essential Questions Enduring Understandings
How can you draw conclusions about the characteristics of a large group?
Suppose you want to compare the characteristics of two groups of
people or things. How can you draw conclusions about the groups without checking every member of each group?
How do you measure probability? Can probability be used to
predict future events? How confident can you be in your predictions?
How do you measure the probability of more than one event?
Collecting a representative sample of a larger group - population - you are studying, valid inferences about the entire group.
If the researcher writes a clear statistical question, he or she can properly divide the entire population into multiple groups.
The probability of an event can be described on a scale from impossible to certain using words or a number. You can use theoretical or experimental probability to determine how likely an event is to occur and make decisions about how often the event will occur in a related situation.
If more than one event is involved, probability can be found by representing the sample space for compound events using a variety of methods (tree diagrams, tables, organized lists, and simulations). Theoretical probability can be used to find the relative likelihood of multiple events.

Gauge how far off the estimate or prediction might be. Draw informal comparative inferences about two populations.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.7.SP.B.3 Informally assess the degree of visual overlap of two numerical data distributions with similar variabilities, measuring the difference between the centers by expressing it as a multiple of a measure of variability. For example, the mean height of players on the basketball team is 10 cm greater than the mean height of players on the soccer team, about twice the variability (mean absolute deviation) on either team; on a dot plot, the separation between the two distributions of heights is noticeable.

Describe the likelihood of chance events as impossible, likely, unlikely, or certain.
Understand that all probabilities are represented by a number from 0 to 1.
Calculate simple probabilities.
Know that the probability of an unlikely event is closer to 0 and a likely event is closer to 1.
Understand that the sum of
the probabilities of all possible outcomes is equal to 1.
Understand statistical experiments and explain the difference between observed and possible outcomes.
Find the relative frequency of an event.
Understand that relative frequencies approach theoretical probability as
given the probability. For example, when rolling a number cube 600 times, predict that a 3 or 6 would be rolled roughly 200 times, but probably not exactly 200 times.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.7.SP.C.7 Develop a probability model and use it to find probabilities of events. Compare probabilities from a model to observed frequencies; if the agreement is not good, explain possible sources of the discrepancy. o 7.SP.C.7.A Develop a uniform
probability model by assigning equal probability to all outcomes, and use the model to determine probabilities of events. For example, if a student is selected at random from a class, find the probability that Jane will be selected and the probability that a girl will be selected.
o 7.SP.C.7.B Develop a probability model (which may not be uniform) by observing frequencies in data generated from a chance process. For example, find the approximate
Fair Game Performance Task - students will use understanding of probabilities to represent the sample space for simple and compound events, and use the probability to estimate probability of future outcomes.

probability that a spinning penny will land heads up or that a tossed paper cup will land open-end down. Do the outcomes for the spinning penny appear to be equally likely based on the observed frequencies?
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.7.SP.C.8Find probabilities of compound events using organized lists, tables, tree diagrams, and simulation. o 7.SP.C.8.A Understand that,
just as with simple events, the probability of a compound event is the fraction of outcomes in the sample space for which the compound event occurs. 7.SP.C.8.B Represent sample spaces for compound events using methods such as organized lists, tables and tree diagrams. For an event described in everyday language (e.g., "rolling double sixes"), identify the outcomes in the sample space which compose the event.
o 7.SP.C.8.C Design and use a simulation to generate frequencies for compound
