Each task has at least one solution and some commentary that addresses important asects of the task and its potential use. Here are the first few lines of the commentary for this task: Molly ran $\frac{2}{3}$ of a mile in 8 minutes. If Molly runs at that speed, how long will it take her to run one mile? [_____]...

This 7th grade Math parent guide explains the content in straightforward terms so they can support their children’s learning at home and will encourage caretaker engagement with lessons.

Our Teacher Guides are meant to support the use of our online course and unit content. Please use these to accompany the use of our content and for ideas to support struggling learners, those needing extension and for additional resources.

CK-12 Middle School Math Concepts for seventh grade provides a complete textbook. It presents topics including algebraic thinking, patterns, decimals, decimal operations, fractions, fraction operations, integers, integer operations, ratios, rates, proportions, percents, percent applications, equations, solving equations, inequalities, functions, graphing functions, geometry, plane geometry, solid geometry, area, perimeter, surface area, volume, statistics including mean, median, mode and range, graphing and types of graphs, and probability.

In this activity, students will compare ratios with different denominators, and then with common denominators. They will also find unit rates.

In this lesson, students compute unit rates associated with ratios of quantities measured in different units. Students use the context of the problem to recall the meaning of value of a ratio, equivalent ratios, rate and unit rate, relating them to the context of the experience.

While the task as written does not explicitly use the term "unit rate," most of the work students will do amounts to finding unit rates. A recipe context works especially well since there are so many different pair-wise ratios to consider.

Students will watch introductory videos about paratroopers in WWII and how parachutes work, and be challenged to design, create, and improve, an original paratrooper with specific limited supplies.

This lesson is designed to wrap up the unit with an assessment and individual project. Students will complete an short in-class assessment on Unit Rates and Proportions. Students will begin their individual research necessary to complete a global project based on the previous tasks within this unit. This lesson was developed by Elizabeth Hicks as part of their completion of the North Carolina Global Educator Digital Badge program. This lesson plan has been vetted at the local and state level for standards alignment, Global Education focus, and content accuracy.

Students will develop an understanding of the term "Mark up" and the difference between the markup and retail price of an item. Students will be able to use a proportional relationship in calculating the mark up and discount for an item. The will develop an understanding of how manufacturers and retail stores make a profit on items sold. This lesson was developed by Elizabeth Hicks as part of their completion of the North Carolina Global Educator Digital Badge program. This lesson plan has been vetted at the local and state level for standards alignment, Global Education focus, and content accuracy.

Students will use global information obtained in previous lessons; such as poverty levels, to calculate percent change. Students will develop an understanding "Percent Change" and how to calculate it using proportions. This lesson was developed by Elizabeth Hicks as part of their completion of the North Carolina Global Educator Digital Badge program. This lesson plan has been vetted at the local and state level for standards alignment, Global Education focus, and content accuracy.

Students will learn and understand tax rates and how they are determined. They will investigate the various rates across the country and determine how they are calculated. This lesson was developed by Elizabeth Hicks as part of their completion of the North Carolina Global Educator Digital Badge program. This lesson plan has been vetted at the local and state level for standards alignment, Global Education focus, and content accuracy.

This lesson will pull knowledge previously gained within the students' ELA class while studying types of homelessness locally and nationally. Students will determine a list of necessities to live and determine the unit cost of those necessities. This will allow students to develop an understanding of cost of living. This lesson was developed by Elizabeth Hicks as part of their completion of the North Carolina Global Educator Digital Badge program. This lesson plan has been vetted at the local and state level for standards alignment, Global Education focus, and content accuracy.

The lesson will allow students to work collaboratively to develop and individually to develop an understanding of living in poverty. They will research, investigate, and discuss how the national poverty level is calculated. While examining poverty on the local and national level, they will be given the opportunity to use percentages in their calculations. This lesson was developed by Elizabeth Hicks as part of their completion of the North Carolina Global Educator Digital Badge program. This lesson plan has been vetted at the local and state level for standards alignment, Global Education focus, and content accuracy.

Students will build upon reasoning of ratios and rates to formally define proportional relationships and the constant of proportionality. They explore multiple representations of proportional relationships by looking at tables, graphs, equations, and verbal descriptions, extend their understanding about ratios and proportional relationships to compute unit rates for ratios and rates specified by rational numbers.
