08/17/2013 21:37The 6th grade math curriculum focuses on the following concepts:
- Order of Operations
- Integers
- Equations
- Expressions
- Translating expressions
- Coordinate graphing
- Fractions, decimals, and percents
- Multiplying and dividing fractions and mixed numbers
- Multiplying and dividing decimals
- Estimating
- 3-D figures
- Similar and congruent figures
- Area and circumference of a circle
- Measurement
- Central tendency
- Analyzing graphs
- Patterns
- Counting Principle.
The 6th grade math extensions curriculum covers the same concepts, but at a much faster pace. We will also cover many 7th grade concepts throughout the year such as Ratios, Proportions, Percents, 2-step Equations, and Inequalities.
The 7th grade Math Extensions curriculum is a fast-paced, accelerated curriculum designed to cover the majority of 7th and 8th grade curriculum, preparing students to take Algebra next year.
The concepts covered in pre-algebra are:
- Expressions
- Relations
- Scatterplots
- Integer Operations (add, sub, mult, divide)
- Graphing in all 4 Quadrants
- Translations and Reflections
- Rational Numbers
- Distributive Property
- Simplifying Algebraic Expressions
- Solving 1-step and 2-step Equations
- Perimeter and Area
- Equations with Variables on Both Sides
- Inequalities
- Multi-step Equations and Inequalities
- Ratio, Proportion, and Percents
- Scale Drawings
- Dilations
