The 7th grade mathematics program emphasizes study skills and the development of mathematical problem-solving. It is a year in which skills are developed in note-taking, reading and following a math text, the use of scientific calculators, correction and further use of daily assignments.
Homework is assigned, checked and collected daily.
Traditional and cooperative group learning provide situations for developing problem-solving strategies in algebra, geometry, statistics and probability. In addition, spreadsheets and other computer applications are an integral part of the course. Students who have mastered the skills mentioned above by the end of first semester are selected to accelerate their study. The topics are covered in more depth with increased emphasis on problem-solving. The course emphasizes the basic language, concepts, and skills of algebra while integrating geometry, statistics and probability.
