7th: Students compare equivalent forms of expressions and recognize that there are multiple ways to represent the context of a word problem. Students write and evaluate expressions to represent real-world scenarios. Students write and evaluate expressions to represent real-world scenarios. Students combine like terms.

CCSS: 7.NS.1. Apply properties of operations as strategies to add, subtract, factor, and expand linear expressions with rational coefficients. 7.NS.4. Use variables to represent quantities in a real-world or mathematical problem, and construct simple equations and inequalities to solve problems by reasoning about the quantities. a. Solve word problems leading to equations of the form px + q = r and p(x + q) = r, where p, q, and r are specific rational numbers. Solve equations of these forms fluently. Compare an algebraic solution to an arithmetic solution, identifying the sequence of the operations used in each approach.
8th: Students can graph a line using the slope-intercept equation y=mx+b. Students can also determine the equation of line in slope-intercept form from a graph, or just two points on the graph of a line. TEST THURSDAY!

CCSS: 8.EE.5 Graph proportional relationships, interpreting the unit rate as the slope of the graph. Compare two different proportional relationships represented in different ways. 8.EE.B.6 Use similar triangles to explain why the slope m is the same between any two distinct points on a non-vertical line in the coordinate plane; derive the equation y=mx for a line through the origin and the equation y=mx+b for a line intercepting the vertical axis at b 8.F.A.2 Compare properties of two functions each represented in a different way (algebraically, graphically, numerically in tables, or by verbal descriptions).
