Welcome to a challenging year of mathematics. The math you learn in CCSS 7 you will use countless times in your life. In places like shopping and around the house. It will be a fast, fun and challenging year, and I am thrilled to have the chance to guide you in your exploration of CCSS 7 concepts. We will be working with proportions, fractions, percents, decimals, functions, expressions, equations, geometry, and much much more! You are beginning an exciting experience that I hope will make math your favorite period of the day. I ask that you give each assignment your best effort, ask questions when you are uncertain and open your mind to new ideas. I am confident that all students who apply themselves will be successful this year.
