Less than $5 7th Grade Algebra Activities (by date, latest first)

Grade 7 math covers some introductory concepts such as algebra, fractions, decimals, percentages, integers, angles, equations, and introduction to probability. These concepts are in fact the basics of all math concepts that they are going to learn in their future years. Gaining a deep understanding of these concepts builds a very strong foundation for their math knowledge. Thus, it is important to have the entire year 7 math curriculum in hand.

Algebra is introduced in Grade 7 where the child starts to see variables and use them to represent different scenarios of real life. Also, they are made to solve simple equations in algebra with a few steps.

The Grade 7 math is aligned with the following concepts:

· Numbers and Fractions

· Lines and Angles

· Ratios and Percentages

· Triangles and Quadrilaterals

· Areas and Perimeters of 2D shapes

· Expressions and Simple Equations

50 intriguing math puzzles are included in this printable worksheet, along with their answers. The activities will help your Grade 7 students practice math in a fun way.
