• 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
