Daily Grade 7 Math Class Singapore Math Accelerated Dimensions Math 7a (Ongoing)

Please note, this is an accelerated, and challenging Grade 7 Math program. We are using Singapore Math-Dimensions 7A Textbook (ISBN:9789814431729). It is more condensed, faster and higher level of Grade 7 Math compared to other Math 7 textbooks. 

Please note: If a learner's math ability does not meet the group's accelerated learning pace, learner may be asked to join a different section of another Grade 7 Math class. 

I will be using the Share Screen feature on Zoom so students are encouraged to provide their share their responses using a stylus/apple pencil/drawing tablet with a stylus, in the chat or using screen share. Completion of Grade 6 is required for the Grade 7 section.
