Mathematics with Mr. Morris

Grade seven math is the first year of our two year middle school math continuum. In keeping with middle school philosophy, students are heterogeneously grouped. This course offers the students an opportunity to increase their knowledge of fractions, decimals, percents and geometry.

 

Topics such as integers, rational numbers, equations, inequalities, graphing, and ratio proportions are discussed in detail in preparation for eighth grade algebra/geometry. There is an emphasis on conceptual understanding and practical application of the mathematical topics being studied. The course is very carefully structured so that students have many opportunities for success. The calculator will be utilized for problem solving and computation at appropriated times throughout the year.
