7th grade Math

Date(s):November 10 – November 14

Objectives (TEKS, Language ELPs) / TEKS:
MATH.7.1E Create and use representations to organize, record, and communicate mathematical ideas.
MATH.7.1F Analyze mathematical relationships to connect and communicate mathematical ideas.
MATH.7.6E Determine the probabilities of a simple event and its complement and describe the relationship between the two.
MATH.7.6I Determine experimental and theoretical probabilities related to simple and compound events using data and sample spaces.
ELPS:
C.1g Demonstrate an increasing ability to distinguish between formal and informal English and an increasing knowledge of when to use each one commensurate with grade-level learning expectations.
C.3i Adapt spoken language appropriately for formal and informal purposes.
C.5b Write using newly acquired basic vocabulary and content-based grade-level vocabulary.
CCRS:

7th Grade PreAp Math

Date(s): November 3 - November 7

Objectives (TEKS, Language ELPs) / TEKS:
MATH.7.1G/ MATH.8.1G Display, explain, and justify mathematical ideas and arguments using precise mathematical language in written or oral communication.
MATH.8.8DUse informal arguments to establish facts about the angle sum and exterior angle of triangles, about the angles created when parallel lines are cut by a transversal, and the angle-angle criterion for similarity of triangles.
ELPS:
  • ELPS C.1c Use strategic learning techniques such as concept mapping, drawing, memorizing, comparing, contrasting, and reviewing to acquire basic and grade-level vocabulary.
  • ELPS C.1e Internalize new basic and academic language by using and reusing it in meaningful ways in speaking and writing activities that build concept and language attainment.
  • ELPS C.5g Narrate, describe, and explain with increasing specificity and detail to fulfill content area writing needs as more English is acquired.
CCRS:
2. A3 Understand ratios, proportions, percentages, and decimal fractions, and translate from any form to any other.
2. A4 Use proportional reasoning to solve problems.
2. B1 Carry out formal operations using standard algebraic symbols and formulae.
