Math Mammoth Grade 7-B Complete Curriculum

Math Mammoth Grade 7-B, comprises a complete math curriculum for the second half of seventh grade mathematics studies. The curriculum meets and exceeds the Common Core standards.

The first half of seventh grade is covered in Math Mammoth Grade 7-A.

This product, Math Mammoth Grade 7-B, covers ratios and proportions (chapter 6), percent (chapter 7), geometry (chapter 8), the Pythagorean Theorem (chapter 9), probability (chapter 10) and statistics (chapter 11). The rest of the topics are covered in Math Mammoth Grade 7-A.

You will also get separate answer keys, chapter tests, additional cumulative reviews (I do recommend you use at least some of them), and a versatile worksheet maker (Internet access required) for those times when a child needs just a bit more practice.

Some important points to keep in mind when using the curriculum:

• The books (parts A and B) are like a “framework”, but you still have a lot of liberty in planning the child’s studies. This is especially advisable if the child is “stuck” on some particular topic. Sometimes the concept the child was stuck on will become clearer after a break from the topic. The five chapters in part 7-A are best studied in the order presented. However, you can study the chapters on geometry, probability, and statistics at most any point during the year. The chapters on ratios & proportions and percent (in part 7-B) are best left until the student has learned to solve one-step equations (in chapter 3).
• Math Mammoth is mastery-based, which means it concentrates on a few major topics at a time, in order to study them in depth. However, you can still use it in a spiral manner, if you prefer. Simply have the child study in 2-3 chapters simultaneously. This type of flexible use of the curriculum enables you to truly individualize the instruction for the child.
• Don’t automatically assign all the exercises. Use your judgment, trying to assign just enough for the child’s needs. You can use the skipped exercises later for review. For most children, I recommend to start out by assigning about half of the available exercises. Adjust as necessary.
• For review, the curriculum includes a worksheet maker (Internet access required), mixed review lessons, additional cumulative review lessons, and the word problems continually require usage of past concepts.

The student PDF file in this product is enabled for annotation.

This means the student can fill it in using a computer or a tablet (distance learning).

The student will need to use either Adobe Reader (on desktop/laptop) or a PDF app that has annotation tools (phones or tablets). Several PDF apps with annotation capabilities exist; see more details here.

It is recommended that you not share the entire student worktext PDF file with students. Instead, it is better to just give the students a few pages at a time. Here is a simple method for extracting a few pages from a PDF file. It is done using Google Chrome.

1. Open the PDF file in Chrome.
2. Go to "Print" (Ctrl+P).
3. Print to PDF, and choose the page range.
4. Click the "Save" button.
