Grade 7 Mathematics
Curriculum Map
Mathematics Florida State Standards
Volusia County Curriculum Maps are revised annually and updated throughout the year.
The learning goals are a work in progress and may be modified as needed.
Mathematics Florida State Standards
Standards for Mathematical Practice
1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. (MAFS.K12.MP.1)
Solving a mathematical problem involves making sense of what is known and applying a thoughtful and logical process which
sometimes requires perseverance, flexibility, and a bit of ingenuity.
2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively. (MAFS.K12.MP.2)
The concrete and the abstract can complement each other in the development of mathematical understanding: representing a
concrete situation with symbols can make the solution process more efficient, while reverting to a concrete context can help make
sense of abstract symbols.
3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. (MAFS.K12.MP.3)
A well-crafted argument/critique requires a thoughtful and logical progression of mathematically sound statements and supporting
evidence.
4. Model with mathematics. (MAFS.K12.MP.4)
Many everyday problems can be solved by modeling the situation with mathematics.
5. Use appropriate tools strategically. (MAFS.K12.MP.5)
Strategic choice and use of tools can increase reliability and precision of results, enhance arguments, and deepen mathematical
understanding.
6. Attend to precision. (MAFS.K12.MP.6)
Attending to precise detail increases reliability of mathematical results and minimizes miscommunication of mathematical
explanations.
7. Look for and make use of structure. (MAFS.K12.MP.7)
Recognizing a structure or pattern can be the key to solving a problem or making sense of a mathematical idea.
8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning. (MAFS.K12.MP.8)
Recognizing repetition or regularity in the course of solving a problem (or series of similar problems) can lead to results more quickly
and efficiently.
Grade 7 Mathematics: Mathematics Florida Standards
In Grade 7,instructional time should focus on four critical area: (1) developing understanding of and applying proportional relationships;
(2) developing understanding of operations with rational numbers and working with expressions and linear equations; (3) solving
problems involving scale drawings and informal geometric constructions, and working with two- and three-dimensional shapes to solve
problems involving area, surface area, and volume; and (4) drawing inferences about populations based on samples.
(1) Students extend their understanding of ratios and develop understanding of proportionality to solve single- and multi-step problems. Students
use their understanding of ratios and proportionality to solve a wide variety of percent problems, including those involving discounts, interest, taxes,
tips, and percent increase or decrease. Students solve problems about scale drawings by relating corresponding lengths between the objects or by
using the fact that relationships of lengths within an object are preserved in similar objects. Students graph proportional relationships and
understand the unit rate informally as a measure of the steepness of the related line, called the slope. They distinguish proportional relationships
from other relationships.
(2) Students develop a unified understanding of number, recognizing fractions, decimals (that have a finite or a repeating decimal representation),
and percents as different representations of rational numbers. Students extend addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division to all rational
numbers, maintaining the properties of operations and the relationships between addition and subtraction, and multiplication and division. By
applying these properties, and by viewing negative numbers in terms of everyday contexts (e.g., amounts owed or temperatures below zero),
students explain and interpret the rules for adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing with negative numbers. They use the arithmetic of rational
numbers as they formulate expressions and equations in one variable and use these equations to solve problems.
(3) Students continue their work with area from Grade 6, solving problems involving area and circumference of a circle and surface area of threedimensional objects. In preparation for work on congruence and similarity in Grade 8 they reason about relationships among two-dimensional
figures using scale drawings and informal geometric constructions, and they gain familiarity with the relationship between angles formed by
intersecting lines. Students work with three-dimensional figures, relating them to two-dimensional figures by examining cross-sections. They solve
real-world and mathematical problems involving area, surface area, and volume of two- and three-dimensional objects composed of triangles,
quadrilaterals, polygons, cubes and right prisms.
(4) Students build on their previous work with single data distributions to compare two data distributions and address questions about difference
between populations. They begin informal work with random sampling to generate data sets and learn about the importance of representative
samples for drawing inferences.
Fluency Recommendations
7.EE.3:
7.EE.4:
7.NS.1–2:
Students solve multistep problems posed with positive and negative rational numbers in any form (whole numbers, fractions and
decimals), using tools strategically. This work is the culmination of many progressions of learning in arithmetic, problem solving and
mathematical practices.
In solving word problems leading to one-variable equations of the form px + q = r and p(x + q) = r, students solve the equations
fluently. This will require fluency with rational number arithmetic (7.NS.1–3), as well as fluency to some extent with applying
properties operations to rewrite linear expressions with rational coefficients (7.EE.1).
Adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing rational numbers is the culmination of numerical work with the four basic operations. The
number system will continue to develop in grade 8, expanding to become the real numbers by the introduction of irrational numbers,
and will develop further in high school, expanding to become the complex numbers with the introduction of imaginary numbers.
Because there are no specific standards for rational number arithmetic in later grades and because so much other work in grade 7
depends on rational number arithmetic (see below), fluency with rational number arithmetic should be the goal in grade 7.
The following English Language Arts LAFS should be taught throughout the course:
LAFS.68.RST.1.3:
LAFS.68.RST.2.4:
Follow precisely a multistep procedure when carrying out experiments, taking measurements, or performing technical tasks.
Determine the meaning of symbols, key terms, and other domain-specific words and phrases as they are used in a specific
scientific or technical context relevant to grades 6–8 texts and topics.
LAFS.68.RST.3.7:
Integrate quantitative or technical information expressed in words in a text with a version of that information expressed
visually (e.g., in a flowchart, diagram, model, graph, or table).
LAFS.68.WHST.1.1: Write arguments focused on discipline-specific content. a. Introduce claim(s) about a topic or issue, acknowledge and
distinguish the claim(s) from alternate or opposing claims, and organize the reasons and evidence logically. b. Support
claim(s) with logical reasoning and relevant, accurate data and evidence that demonstrate an understanding of the topic or
text, using credible sources. c. Use words, phrases, and clauses to create cohesion and clarify the relationships among
claim(s), counterclaims, reasons, and evidence. d. Establish and maintain a formal style. e. Provide a concluding statement or
section that follows from and supports the argument presented.
LAFS.68.WHST.2.4: Produce clear and coherent writing in which the development, organization, and style are appropriate to task, purpose, and
audience.
LAFS.7.SL.1.1:
Engage effectively in a range of collaborative discussions with diverse partners on grade 7 topics, texts, and issues, building
on others’ ideas and expression their own clearly.
LAFS.7.SL.1.2:
Analyze the main ideas and supporting details presented in diverse media and formats (e.g., visually, quantitatively, orally)
and explain how the ideas clarify a topic, text, or issue under study.
LAFS.7.SL.1.3:
Delineate a speaker’s argument and specific claims, evaluating the soundness of the reasoning and the relevance and
sufficiency of the evidence.
LAFS.7.SL.2.4:
Present claims and findings, emphasizing salient points in a focused, coherent manner with pertinent descriptions, facts,
details, and examples; use appropriate eye contact, adequate volume, and clear pronunciation.

For example, a + 0.05a = 1.05a
means that “increase by 5%” is the

or $2.50, for a new salary of $27.50.
If you want to place a towel bar 9¾

MAFS.7.RP.1.1
Compute unit rates associated with ratios of
fractions, including ratios of lengths, areas,
and other quantities measured in like or
different units.
MAFS.7.RP.1.2
Recognize and represent proportional
relationships between quantities.
a. Decide whether two quantities are in a
proportional relationship, e.g., by testing for
equivalent ratios in a table, or graphing on a
coordinate plane and observing whether the
graph is a straight line through the origin.
b. Identify the constant of proportionality (unit
rate) in tables, graphs, equations, diagrams,
and verbal descriptions of proportional
relationships.
c. Represent proportional relationships by
equations.
d. Explain what a point (x, y) on the graph of
a proportional relationship means in terms of
the situation, with special attention to the
points (0, 0) and (1, r ) where r is the unit
rate.

compute a unit rate by iterating (repeating)
or partitioning given rate.
 compute a unit rate by multiplying or
dividing both quantities by the same factor.
 explain the relationship between using
composed units and a multiplicative
comparison to express a unit rate.
 determine whether two quantities are
proportional by examining the relationship
given in a table, graph, equation, diagram or
as a verbal description.
 identify the constant of proportionality when
presented with a proportional relationship in
the form of a table, graph equation, diagram,
or verbal descriptions.
 write an equation that represents a
proportional relationship.
 graph proportional relationships and
indentify the unit rate as the slope of the
related linear function
For example, if a person
walks ½ mile in each ¼
hour, compute the unit rate
as the complex fraction ½/¼
miles per hour, equivalently
2 miles per hour.
For example, if total cost t is
proportional to the number n
of items purchased at a
constant price p, the
relationship between the
total cost and the number of
items can be expressed
as t = pn.

Students may believe:
Pi is an exact number rather
than understanding that 3.14
is just an approximation of
pi.
Many students are confused
when dealing with
circumference (linear

(surrounding) vs. an attribute
that is measured using area
units (covering).

Find probabilities of compound events
using organized lists, tables, tree diagrams
and simulation.
a. understand that , just as with simple
events, the probability of a compound event
is the fraction of outcomes in the staple
space for which the compound event
occurs.
b. represent sample spaces for compound
events using methods such as organized
lists, tables and tree diagrams. For an
event described in everyday language (eg.
“rolling double sixes”), identify the
outcomes in the sample space which
compose the event.

MAFS.7.SP.3.7
Develop a probability model and use it to
find probabilities of events. Compare
probabilities from a model to observed
frequencies; if the agreement is not
good, explain possible sources of the
discrepancy.
a. develop a uniform probability model by
assigning equal probability to all
outcomes, and use the model to
determine probabilities of events.

may not be uniform) by observing
frequencies in data generated from a
chance process.

collect data on a chance process to

use probability to predict the number of times a
particular event will occur given a specific

probability will not always exactly equal the
theoretical probability.
develop a simulation to model a situation in
which all events are equally likely to occur.

rolled roughly 200 times, but
probably not exactly 200
times.
For example, if a student is
selected at random from a

a girl will be selected.
For example, find the
approximate probability that a
spinning penny will land
heads up or that a tossed
paper cup will land open-end
down. Do the outcomes for
the spinning penny appear to
be equally likely based on the
observed frequencies?

Remarks
MAFS.7.SP.1.1
Understand that statistics can be used to gain
information about a population by examining a
sample of the population; generalizations about a
population from a sample are valid only if the
sample is representative of that population.
Understand that random sampling tends to
produce representative samples and support valid
inferences.
MAFS.7.SP.1.2
Use data from a random sample to draw inference
about a population with an unknown characteristic
of interest. Generate multiple samples (or
simulated samples) of the same size to gauge the
variation in estimates or predictions.
MAFS.7.SP.2.3
Informally assess the degree of visual overlap of
two numerical data distributions with similar
variability, measuring the difference between the
centers by expressing it as a multiple of a measure
of variability.
MAFS.7.SP.2.4
Use measure of center and measure of variability
for numerical data from random samples to draw
informal comparative inference about two
populations.

explain that random sampling trends to produce
representative samples.
draw inferences about a population based on data
generated by a random sample.
generate multiple samples from the same population and
analyze the estimates or predictions based on the
variation of each sample.
find the difference in the mean or median of two
different data sets.
demonstrate how two data sets that are very different
can have similar variability’s.
draw inferences about the data sets by making a
comparison of these difference relative to the mean
absolute deviation or interquartile range of either set of
data.
compare two populations by using the means and/or
medians of data collected from random samples.
compare two populations by using the mean absolute
deviations and/or interquartile ranges of data from
random samples.
For example, estimate the mean
word length in a book by
randomly sampling words from
the book; predict the winner of a
school election based on
randomly sampled survey data.
Gauge how far off the estimate
or prediction might be.
For example, the mean height of
players on the basketball team is
1- cm greater than the mean
height of players on the soccer
team, about twice the variability
( mean absolute deviation) on
either team; on a dot plot, the
separation between the two
distributions of heights is
noticeable.
For example, decide whether the
words in a chapter of a seventhgrade science book are
generally longer than the words
in a chapter of a fourth-grade
science book.
