Mathematics Grade 7
. Number and Number Relations: In problem-solving investigations,
students demonstrate an understanding of the real number system and
communicate the relationships within that system using a variety of
techniques and tools.

forms, and selecting an appropriate form for a given situation (e.g.,
fractions, decimals, and percents)

decimals, and percents (i.e., halves, thirds, fourths, fifths, eighths,
tenths, hundredths) (N-1-M)
N-8-M . demonstrating a conceptual understanding and applications of
proportional reasoning (e.g., determining equivalent ratios, finding a
missing term of a given proportion)
M-GLE-7-10. Determine and apply rates and ratios (N-8-M)
M-GLE-7-11. Use proportions involving whole numbers to solve real-life
problems (N-8-M)
. Algebra: In problem-solving investigations, students demonstrate an
understanding of concepts and processes that allow them to analyze,
represent, and describe relationships among variable
A-1-M . demonstrating a conceptual understanding of variables,
expressions, equations, and inequalities (e.g., symbolically represent real-
world problems as linear terms, equations, or inequalities)
M-GLE-7-14. Write a real-life meaning of a simple algebraic equation or
inequality, and vice versa (A-1-M) (A-5-M)
A-2-M. modeling and developing methods for solving equations and
inequalities (e.g., using charts, graphs, manipulatives, and/or standard
algebraic procedures)
M-GLE-7-17. Graph solutions sets of one-step equations and inequalities
as points, or open and closed rays on a number line (e.g., x = 5, x < 5, x £
5, x > 5, x ³ 5) (A-2-M)
A-3-M . representing situations and number patterns with tables, graphs,
and verbal and written statements, while exploring the relationships among
these representations (e.g., multiple representations for the same
situation)
M-GLE-7-18. Describe linear, multiplicative, or changing growth
relationships (e.g., 1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, …) verbally and algebraically (A-3-

A-4-M. analyzing tables and graphs to identify relationships exhibited by
the data and making generalizations based upon these relationships

locate the coordinates of a missing vertex in a parallelogram (G-6-M) (A-5-
M)
. Data Analysis, Probability, and Discrete Math: In problem-solving
investigations, students discover trends, formulate conjectures regarding
cause-and-effect relationships, and demonstrate critical thinking skills in
order to make informed decisions.
D-2-M. analyzing, interpreting, evaluating, drawing inferences, and
making estimations, predictions, decisions, and convincing arguments based on
organized data (e.g., analyze data using concepts of mean, median,
M-GLE-7-31. Analyze and interpret circle graphs, and determine when a
circle graph is the most appropriate type of graph to use (D-2-M)
