7th grade Math

Seventh-grade math is proportional reasoning: rational numbers with signs, unit rates and the constant of proportionality, percent change, similar shapes and scale drawings, circles, volumes of prisms and pyramids, two-step equations and inequalities, probability with sample spaces, comparing groups of data, and personal finance from budgets to compound interest.

Practice activities

⚖️Rational Numbers and Proportional ReasoningOperate fluently with rational numbers, represent constant rates of change, find unit rates and the constant of proportionality, solve percent-change problems, and convert between measurement systems.
🎈Balloon Pop: Equations and RatesCheck which equations and inequalities a value makes true, and match unit rates.
🧾Corner Store: Sales TaxWork out sales tax, totals with tax, and tips to the cent.
📐Similar Shapes, Circles, and 3-D FiguresSimilarity and scale drawings, π and circles, volumes of prisms and pyramids, areas of composite figures, surface area, and angle equations.
🎲Probability and DataSample spaces and tree diagrams, simulations, experimental and theoretical probability, complements, random samples and inference, and comparing groups with dot plots and box plots.
💵Two-Step Equations and Money SenseWrite, model, and solve two-step equations and inequalities, graph solutions, check values, and handle taxes, budgets, net worth, family budgets, simple and compound interest, and sales incentives.
⚖️Balance Scale: Two StepsTwo-step equations, one move at a time.
💵Wages and the Family BudgetThe real federal minimum wage against real prices: minutes of work to buy eggs, bread and gas, what a full-time wage earns, budget percents, and two years of egg prices compared with box plots. Real data from FRED, Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis.

How to help at home

Let your child handle real numbers: a restaurant bill, a discount, miles per gallon.
When they are stuck, ask what the question is asking before touching the numbers.
Celebrate the strategy, not just the answer: what did you try first?
