In 7th grade math at Ignite Christian Academy, students build solid foundations for high school math by studying basic pre-algebra concepts.

In Ignite Christian Academy’s math courses, students strengthen critical thinking skills and learn
to apply mathematical concepts to real-life situations to come up with practical solutions. Math
allows students to see and discover the order of the natural world, through logic, patterns, and
processes. Math gives students insight into the rational, consistent nature of God. Examination
of various mathematical concepts contributes to a deeper understanding of God’s creative and
ordered design and the responsibility to use the ability to reason, problem solve and make
choices based on our understanding of content to serve and glorify God.

This course begins with an in-depth study of proportional reasoning where students utilize
concrete models such as bar diagrams and tables to increase and develop a conceptual
understanding of rates, ratios, proportions, and percentages. Students build on their
proportional reasoning to solve problems about scale drawings by relating the corresponding
lengths between objects. Students’ number fluency and understanding of the rational number
system are extended as they perform operations with signed rational numbers embedded in
real-world contexts. In statistics, students develop meanings for representative samples,
measures of central tendency, variation, and the ideal representation for comparisons of given
data sets. Students develop an understanding of both theoretical and experimental probability.
Throughout the course, students build fluency in writing expressions and equations that model
real-world scenarios. They apply their understanding of inverse operations to solve multistep
equations and inequalities. The course concludes with a geometric analysis of angle
relationships, area, and volume of both two- and three-dimensional figures.

Note: A protractor, compass, and straight edge are required to complete assignments in this course.
