Curriculum & Grade 4: Mathematics Pacing Guide
Grade 7: Pre-Algebra
Martinsville City Public Schools Revised Summer 2011 Updated Summer 2012 TJV
Martinsville City Public Schools’ Instructional Plan of Action The Martinsville City Public Schools Curriculum Guide was developed using the Standards of Learning for Virginia Public Schools and the State Curriculum Framework. Also, an emphasis was placed on the integration of 21st Century Skills into all areas of K-12 education. Martinsville City Public Schools believes that to compete in a global community, all children must develop lifelong independent skills that demonstrate initiative, self direction, and the ability to problem-solve, innovate and create, and communicate by writing and speaking effectively. To provide an avenue for students to develop these important qualifications and provide a more rigorous learning environment, Martinsville City Public Schools encourages problem-based learning in all classrooms. The collaboration between students in this type of learning environment develops skills in leadership, accountability, social, and cross-cultural understanding as they communicate and think critically to problem-solve real world applications of the curriculum. Martinsville City Public Schools’ Core curriculum prepares students to achieve these 21st Century skills through competent cross- curricular activities that apply knowledge of concepts learned in other areas of study and in the community. Standard benchmark assessments along with project-based assessments and end of year SOL tests are administered to ensure mastery of the concepts. PALS assessments are used to ensure proficiency in Reading for grades Pre-K through Eight. To further ensure that all students learn to the best of their abilities, a Response to Intervention (RtI) system, using STAR Math and STAR Reading, is in place to guide classroom instruction, screen and progress monitor students so that intervention and enrichment activities are scheduled based on the students individual needs throughout the year.
Curriculum Guide OVERVIEW The Martinsville City Public Schools’ Curriculum Guide is designed to provide a reference document for each subject and grade level that indicates The Curriculum’s Big Ideas, Instructional Strategies, Model lessons, & Assessment Instruments and suggested time frames to be used as a Guide for classroom instruction. In addition, Learning Targets at a Glance contains an overview of the curriculum taught for each grading period for each subject and grade level. 21st Century Internet Safety procedures are listed, and for Grades Three through Twelve, an SOL Testing Blueprint Target is included to give insight to the strands that will receive the most focus on the SOL Assessments. Two symbols will be used to denote the 21st Century Focus: This symbol is used through to denote a 21st Century skill. This symbol is used throughout to denote a 21st Century Global Connection.
Learning Overview The Seventh Grade student will be provided many opportunities to engage in experiences involving problem solving, data collection and analysis, and algebraic thinking. The Virginia Standards of Learning provide the foundation for seventh grade mathematics. The standards are organized into 6 strands: Number/Number Sense: The focus of instruction allows students to investigate and develop an understanding of number sense by modeling numbers, using different representations. Students should develop strategies for reading, writing, and judging the size of numbers, fractions and decimals by comparing them, using a variety of models and benchmarks as ferments. Computation and Estimation: The focus of instruction allows students to develop fluency in multiplication and division with whole numbers and decimals, using models, explanation, and proficiency with basic facts and algorithms. Measurement: The focus of instruction allows students to be actively involved in measurement activities that focus on measuring objects and estimating measurements while interacting with their environment. Geometry: The focus of instruction allows students to develop and understanding about how geometric figures relate to each other and begin to use mathematical reasoning to analyze and justify properties and relationships among figures. Probability and Statistics: The focus of instructions allows students to deepen their understanding of concepts of probability by offering opportunities to set up models simulating practical events, engage students in activities to enhance understanding fairness, and activities that instill a spirit of investigation and exploration through use
of manipulatives.

21st Century Internet Safety Procedures
1. Teachers should review all internet sites and links prior to using them in the classroom. During this review, teachers need to ensure the appropriateness of the content on the site. Checking for broken links and paying attention to inappropriate pop-ups or solicitations of information. 2. Teachers should circulate throughout the classroom while students are on the internet to make sure the students are on the appropriate site and are not minimizing other inappropriate sites. 3. Teachers should periodically check and update any web addresses that they have on their MCPS webpage. 4. Teachers should assure that the use of these websites correlate with the objectives of the lesson and provide students with the appropriate challenges.
