Number Sense (approximate time: three weeks)

Students will demonstrate number sense and apply number theory concepts at the beginning of the school year. This will help teachers gauge students’ strengths and weaknesses to make recommendations for student programs (e.g., resource time, adaptations, independent student program plans).

Integers (approximate time: five weeks)

The new year will commence with integers. The students should be rested after the holiday and ready to tackle this important grade 7 topic. This topic will span a five-week period. Students have been only briefly introduced to integers in the past. This is the first time they will work on operations with integers. At the end of the five weeks, your five minutes of mental math can be used to practise operations on integers.

Students will work with Alge-tiles for the first time. These will be used again later on in the year in the algebra unit.
