UNIT 3: 7TH GRADE COMMON CORE MATH COMPREHENSIVE UNIT
Unit Description/ Topic Length: In this 3-week unit, students will engage in rigorous instructional
and assessment tasks that provide them with ample opportunities to connect the mathematical
practices to the mathematical content. The content will focus on ratios, proportional relationships,
multistep ratio and percent problems, operations with rational numbers, equivalent expressions,
linear equations and inequalities, scale drawings, and making inferences based on samples. The
variety of tasks is designed to help students engage with the content by making sense of the
problems, reasoning abstractly and quantitatively, constructing viable arguments and critiquing the
reasoning of others, modeling with mathematics, using appropriate tools strategically, attending to
precision and looking for and making use of structure.
Essential Question:
How can mathematical practices build up students’ understanding of mathematical content?
Big Ideas/Enduring Understandings
 Mathematical understanding is the
ability to justify why a particular
mathematical statement is true or
where a mathematical rule comes
from.
 Students will be able to explain the
meaning of a problem and look for
entry points to its solutions.
 They plan a solution pathway rather
than simply jumping into a solution
attempt.
 Students make sense of the quantities
and their relationships in problem
situations.
 Students will demonstrate quantitative
reasoning by creating a coherent
representation of the problem at hand.
 Students will use stated assumptions,
definitions, and previously established
results in constructing arguments.
 Students can apply the mathematics
they know to solve problems arising in
everyday life, society, and the
workplace.
 Students can identify the appropriate
tools to use for a particular situation
and use them efficiently.
 Students use appropriate vocabulary in
their discussions with others and in
expressing their own reasoning and
