Description

This level reviews concepts in previous levels and effectively prepares students for pre-algebra. Designed for independent learning (parental teaching support as needed), this course includes access to instructional videos through a QR Code or at the publisher’s website. The videos may contain material not in the written lesson. Students should expect to spend 50-60 minutes per lesson at this level. Most lessons consist of a warm-up, video lesson, lesson overview, practice, and review. Grade 7 Set includes Course Books 1-4 and the Answers & Solutions Manual.

  The consumable Course Books each contain 30 lessons that end with a review, assessment, and enrichment activity. The pages in the course books are printed on graph paper so students can easily organize their math work. Engaging videos (available free with the curriculum) are highly recommended and provide full instruction and interactive practice problems. Students should have a scientific calculator on hand for specific math problems.  Answers & Solutions Manual provides answers and complete solutions to the course books.  

  While previous concepts are reviewed, some new concepts in this level include polynomials, negative exponents, introductory algebraic concepts, complex fractions, decimals, order of operations, graphing and solving equations, and much more. This course gives students an extra year to solidify basic math concepts before moving into pre-algebra. ~ Gina
