Essential Questions: 1. What types of problems can you solve by adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing
the different types of rational numbers? 2. How can you use distance on the number line to describe situations? 3. How do you multiply and divide rational numbers? 4. What is an irrational number? 5. How do you compare irrational numbers? 6. What types of problems can be solved using proportional relationships and percents?
Enduring Understanding/Big Ideas:
1. You can solve real-world problems that involve adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing all kinds of positive and negative fractions, integers, and decimals.
2. A number and its opposite have a sum of 0 and are called additive inverses. The distance between two numbers on the number line is the absolute value of their difference.
3. Rational numbers can be multiplied and divided by using properties of operations and the Distributive Property. Every quotient of integers with a nonzero divisor is a rational number.
4. An irrational number is a number that cannot be written as a quotient of two integers. 5. Irrational numbers can be compared using approximations and locations on the number
line. 6. You can use proportional relationships and percents to solve problems including simple
interest, gratuities and commissions, percent increase and decrease, and percent error. Unit Vocabulary:

1. How can you determine the likelihood an event will occur? 2. Suppose you want to know the characteristics of a larger group of people or things. How
can you draw conclusions about the entire group without checking every member of the group?
3. How can you compare the characteristics of two groups of people or things? 4. How do you measure the probability of more than one event? 5. Can you use probability to predict future events? How confident can you be in your
predictions? Enduring Understanding/Big Ideas:
1. A probability close to 0 indicates an unlikely event; a probability of ½ indicates neither a likely nor unlikely (equally likely) event, and a probability close to 1 indicates a likely event.
Board Approved: July 23, 2015 29 | Page Revised: April, 2016 MLS Alignment: April, 2017
2. You can draw conclusions about an entire group by sampling the group for information. There are three types of sampling: convenience, systematic, and random. The key is to ensure you have a representative sample.
3. Using measures of center, such as median and mean, you can compare characteristics of two groups of people or things.
4. You can find the number of outcomes of a multi-step process by finding the product of the number of possible outcomes of each step of the process.
5. When all outcomes of an action are equally likely, you can use theoretical probability to make predictions. Otherwise you can collect data and use experimental probability to predict future events.

Unit 4: Geometry
Subject: Mathematics Grade: 7th Accelerated Name of Unit: Geometry Length of Unit: 55 days (53 plus 2 buffer days) Overview of Unit: Students continue their work with area, solving problems involving area and circumference of a circle and surface area of three-dimensional objects. Students will reason about relationships among two-dimensional figures using scale drawings and informal geometric constructions, and they gain familiarity with the relationships between angles formed by intersecting lines. Students work with three-dimensional figures, relating them to two-dimensional figures by examining cross-sections. They solve real-world and mathematical problems involving area, surface area, and volume of two-and three-dimensional objects composed of triangles, quadrilaterals, polygons, cubes and right prisms. Students use ideas about distance and angles, how they behave under translations, rotations, reflections, and dilations, and ideas about congruence and similarity to describe and analyze two-dimensional figures to solve problems. Students show that the sum of the angles in a triangle is the angle formed by a straight line, and that various configurations of lines give rise to similar triangles because of the angles created when a transversal cuts parallel lines. Students complete their work on volume by solving problems involving cones, cylinders, and spheres. Priority Standards for unit:
● 7.GM.B.5 Use angle properties to write and solve equations for an unknown angle. ● 8.GM.A.2 Understand that two-dimensional figures are congruent if a series of rigid
transformations can be performed to map the pre-image to the image. a. Describe a possible sequence of rigid transformations between two congruent
figures. ● 8.GM.A.3 Describe the effect of dilations, translations, rotations, and reflections on two-
dimensional figures using coordinates. ● 7.GM.B.6 Understand the relationship between area, surface area and volume.

1. Intersecting lines form angles. How can you best describe relationships between those angles?
2. What makes a circle a circle? What does it mean to talk about the size of a circle? 3. How much information do you need to be able to draw a unique figure? 4. In what ways can you measure a three-dimensional figure? Are some measurements more
useful in certain situations than others?
Board Approved: July 23, 2015 37 | Page Revised: April, 2016 MLS Alignment: April, 2017
5. What does it mean for two figures to be identical? How can you be sure they are identical?
Enduring Understanding/Big Ideas:
1. The sum of the measures of two complementary angles is 90 degrees. The sum of the measures of two supplementary angles is 180 degrees. The measures of vertical angles are equal.
2. The set of points in a plane that are the same distance from another point define a circle. The radius, diameter, circumference, and area of a circle are all related; you can use them to talk about the size of a circle. You can cut a circle into wedges and approximate a parallelogram that will have the same area as the circle, and then you can relate the formulas for area.
3. You can use a ruler and a protractor or technology to accurately draw a figure. You need a minimum of three pieces of information (about side lengths or angles) to draw a unique triangle. Slices made parallel to a prism face are identical in size and shape to that face.
4. You can measure a three-dimensional figure by its volume--the amount of space inside the figure. You can measure a three-dimensional figure by its surface area--the sum of the areas of each face. You can use what you know about the volume of a right rectangular prism to find the volume of any right prism.
5. Two figures are identical if you can map one to the other by a sequence of rigid motions, such as translations, reflections, and rotations. A rigid motion changes the position of a figure, but not its size or shape. When figures are congruent, all the matching angles and sizes are congruent.
