6th Grade
Students review basic arithmetic of whole numbers, decimals, fractions, and mixed numbers before being introduced to integers solving equations in the late fall. In the winter we cover topics from ratios and proportions to percentages and consumer math. We finish the year with probability and geometry.
7th Grade
Students review and dig a little deeper into sixth grade skills before moving into a Pre-Algebra curriculum. Much of the fall is solidifying arithmetic with integers and solving equations and inequalities. New topics in seventh grade include linear functions, laws of exponents, and polynomials.
8th Grade
Students focus on Pre-Algebra skills before moving onto Algebra topics. Students solve multi-step equations and inequalities and study different forms of linear equations before being introduced to systems of equations and quadratics. In the spring, students reinforce their knowledge of polynomials and are introduced to radicals.
