Get ahead or catch up! This summer class will cover the core concepts of 7th grade math —perfect for students looking to review before 8th grade or get a strong head start before starting 7th grade in the Fall. Flexible Participation: Join for the topics you need help with. In this course, students will build a strong foundation while learning how to think through problems step by step. I use a gradual learning model where first I demonstrate the material, then we do it together, and finally the student does it on their own—to help students gain confidence and independence. Classes are interactive and focused on helping students understand why math works, not just how to get the right answer. Through questions, discussion, and lots of practice, students will become strong problem solvers who can explain their thinking. Each class includes: 5 minutes of review to refresh key ideas 15 minutes of guided instruction 15 minutes of independent practice 10 minutes of fun, game-style group practice using Blooket (optional—students can also continue working independently) 5 minutes to wrap up, ask questions, and check understanding Students will receive written class notes each class so they can focus on learning rather than copying. Practice problems with an answer key will also be posted after each class for extra review. To help ease math anxiety, students can submit answers and ask questions privately during work time through chat, and I will respond privately as well. Students are always welcome to reach out anytime through the classroom or Outschool messaging if they’d prefer to ask questions outside of class. I’ll ask guiding questions throughout each lesson to encourage independent thinking, but I will never call on students randomly to answer—this keeps our learning space low-pressure, supportive, and focused on growth. What We’ll Cover: Week 1, June 10 and 12, 2025: Number and Operations * Adding and Subtracting Rational Numbers * Multiplying and Dividing Rational Numbers Week 2, June 17 and 19, 2025: Expressions and Equations * Expressions * Equations * Relationships Week 3, June 24 and 26, 2025: Measurement and Geometry * Angles * Circles Week 4, July 1 and 3, 2025: Measurement and Geometry * Surface Area * Volume Week 5, July 8 and 10, 2025: Proportionality * Ratios and Rates * Proportional Relationships Week 6, July 15 and 17, 2025: Proportionality * Linear Relationships * Percents Week 7, July 22 and 24, 2025: Measurement and Data * Sampling * Comparing Two Populations Week 8, July 29 and 31, 2025: Measurement and Data * Probability Concepts * Compound Events Whether you're brushing up or jumping in for the first time, I’ve got you covered!
Learning Goals
Develop independent problem-solving and critical thinking skills to help them analyze real-world problems using algebraic thinking and build confidence in explaining mathematical reasoning.
Understand and apply proportional relationships.
Solve multi-step ratio and percent problems (e.g., tax, tips, discounts, markups, etc.).
Represent proportional relationships with equations, graphs, and tables.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
Blooket games will be used as a fun way to practice the material. Blooket is an online platform that gamifies practice sets created by the teacher. Students do not need an account to join the game.
Pre-Requisites
This class will be a faster pace than the traditional year-long course with the goal of covering all the fundamentals over the summer. Students will need to have a solid understanding of 6th grade math concepts.
Supply List
Please come prepared with: * pencil * paper * calculator * class notes
