US Grade 6 - 8
Students will learn 7th grade math in this 14 week course. This is a full course and this course is great for those who are ready to go into 7th grade math. The following topics will be covered: Week 1 - Proportional Relationships (constant of proportionality, graphs, and equations) Week 2 - Rates and percentages (numerical and word problems) Week 3 - Integers (adding and subtracting negative numbers) Week 4 - Arithmetic with rational numbers (absolute value and operations with negative numbers) Week 5 -Arithmetic with rational numbers (multiplying and dividing with negative numbers) Week 6 - Review of previous concepts Week 7 - Variables & expressions (combining like terms and distributive property) Week 8 - Equations & inequalities (one- and two-step equations) Week 9 - Statistics and Probability (basic probability and compound events) Week 10 - Review of previous concepts Week 11- Scale Copies (scale copies and drawings) Week 12- Geometry (area and circumference of circles) Week 13- Geometry (angles, triangles, volume, and surface area) Week 14 - Review of previous concepts This class will have live meetings. I will also provide guided notes and assign weekly homework on Khan Academy. Students are expected to attend classes weekly (or watch class recordings if they miss a class) and finish their homework. Being that this is a 14 week course, this course is fast pace and to get the most of the course, practice is essential with the assigned homework before the next meeting. I advise parents to be sure learners are doing their part outside of class. Unit test may be issued on Khan Academy and a final course review will be issued at the end of the course to test the learners on their retainment of information and if they are ready for the 8th grade level. This course uses both Khan Academy & outside worksheets. Please message with any questions you may have on this course. Please note, Khan Academy is a free online learning website. Before taking this class students should of course have a understanding of elementary math such a multiplying, fractions, decimals, division, addition, and subtraction. Students are welcome to message me at any time with any questions/concerns.
