• 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 - SP7.2 Circle Graphs We spend a few periods looking at how to read a circle (aka pie) graphs and how to construct one from a set of given data. Students require a protractor, straight edge and quality compass to complete the assignments.
