• Gr 7 outcomes/indicators
  

Math has four broad themes, each of which has many specific skills. You can view them at the Ministry of Education's website. The categories are:

• Number - divisibility rules, relating positive fractions, decimals and percents, operations with integers
• Patterns and Relations - linear relations (algebraic expressions and equations), graphing
• Space and Shape - use of Pi, circles, polygons, 2D relationships - bisectors, perpendicular etc.
• Statistics and Probability - measures of central tendency (average), outliers, circle graphs, determining likelihood

Practice Quizzes

• multiple choice quizzing For students who want to test their understanding,, these short M/C quizzes are available. They're taken from material in our primary resource, Math Focus 7. Click the unit theme, listed below as the current focus, and select topic to begin.

Mathletics
All students will receive a license for the Mathletics website. The site can operate as an important and helpful supplement to classroom activities. Students needing to shore up current or prior learnings are strongly encouraged to use it. 

Current Theme - Number 7.4
This unit is the third of three that considers the meaning of partial value. Following material on fractions and decimals, this one is the most straight forward. During Gr. 6, students we introduced to percent as a value over 100. This year, the concepts are extended to fractional percents, calculations and comparisons. Outcomes include:

• Create a representation of a fractional percent between 1% and 100%
• Express a percent as a decimal or fraction. (convert between the three)
• Solve a problem that involves finding a percent or finding percents of a value
• Determine answers with rounding and explain why an approximate answer is needed, e.g., total cost including taxes.
