Year 7 Mathematics

Overview

In Year 7, students will learn the relevant content of the Australian Curriculum. They will interpret integers in real world contexts. They will make connections between whole numbers and index notation. They will move flexibly between representations of fractions, decimals and percentages. Students will generalise using variables, solve simple linear equations and identify points on the Cartesian plane. They will compare costs of items to make financial decisions. Students will investigate questions involving the collection of a range of data. They will calculate mean, mode, median and range for sets of data and describe the relationship between median and mode in data displays. Students will classify triangles and quadrilaterals and establish the formulas for the area and perimeter of rectangles. They will calculate the volume of rectangular prisms and draw and build three dimensional objects. They will identify angles formed by a transversal through parallel lines and describe transformations on the Cartesian plane.
