FIRST NINE WEEKS

 DATA ANALYSIS AND PROBABILITY

Students will demonstrate understanding of data analysis by posing questions, collecting data, analyzing the data using measures of central tendency and variation, and using the data to answer the questions posed. Students will understand the role of probability in sampling.

M7D1. Students will pose questions, collect data, represent and analyze the data, and interpret results.

including recognition of outliers. 

e. Compare measures of central tendency and variation from samples to those

from a census. Observe that sample statistics are more likely to approximate

the population parameters as sample size increases.

f. Analyze data using appropriate graphs, including pictographs, histograms, bar

graphs, line graphs, circle graphs, and line plots introduced earlier, and using

box and- whisker plots and scatter plots.

g. Analyze and draw conclusions about data, including describing the

relationship between two variables.

ALGEBRA

Students will demonstrate an understanding of linear relations and fundamental algebraic concepts.

M7A1. Students will represent and evaluate quantities using algebraic expressions. 

b. Simplify and evaluate algebraic expressions, using commutative, associative, and distributive properties as appropriate.

c. Add and subtract linear expressions.

M7A2. Students will understand and apply linear equations in one variable.

M7A3. Students will understand relationships between two variables.

 SECOND NINE WEEKS

Students will further develop their understanding of the concept of rational numbers and apply them to real world situations.

M7N1. Students will understand the meaning of positive and negative rational numbers and use them in computation.

a. Find the absolute value of a number and understand it as the distance from

zero on a number line.

b. Compare and order rational numbers, including repeating decimals.

c. Add, subtract, multiply, and divide positive and negative rational numbers.

d. Solve problems using rational numbers.

GEOMETRY

 Students will further develop and apply their understanding of plane and solid geometric figures through the use of constructions and transformations. Students will explore the properties of similarity and further develop their understanding of 3-dimensional figures.

M7G1. Students will construct plane figures that meet given conditions.

a. Perform basic constructions using both compass and straight edge, and

appropriate technology. Constructions should include copying a segment;

copying an angle; bisecting a segment; bisecting an angle; constructing

perpendicular lines, including the perpendicular bisector of a line segment; and

constructing a line parallel to a given line through a point not on the line.

b. Recognize that many constructions are based on the creation of congruent

triangles.

M7G2. Students will demonstrate understanding of transformations.

M7G3. Students will use the properties of similarity and apply these concepts to geometric figures.

 M7G4. Students will further develop their understanding of three-dimensional figures.

a. Describe three-dimensional figures formed by translations and rotations of

plane figures through space.

b. Sketch, model, and describe cross-sections of cones, cylinders, pyramids, and prisms.
