7th Grade: We will start a unit on Ratio and Proportion and using them to solve real-world and mathematical problems. In Grade 7, students extend their reasoning about ratios and proportional
relationships in several ways. Students use ratios in cases in
that involve pairs of rational number entries, and they compute associated unit rates. They identify these unit rates in representations
of proportional relationships.
7.RP.A.2 Recognize and represent proportional relationships between quantities.
7.RP.A.1 Compute unit rates associated with ratios of fractions, including ratios of lengths, areas and other quantities measured in like or different units.
8th grade: We do a smaller week-long unit on the difference between rational and irrational numbers. We will also learn how repeating decimals convert to a ratio of two integers (fractions).
8.NS.1 Know that numbers that are not rational are called irrational. Understand informally that every number has a decimal expansion; for rational numbers show that the decimal expansion repeats eventually, and convert a decimal expansion, which repeats eventually into a rational number
