The standards, in plain English

7.G.A.1
Scale drawings: work out real lengths and areas from a scaled copy, and the scale factor between two shapes.
7.RP.A.2a
Decide whether two quantities are proportional, for example by checking that every pair in a table has the same ratio or that a graph is a straight line through the origin.
7.RP.A.2b
Find the constant of proportionality (the unit rate) from a table, a graph, an equation or a description.
7.RP.A.2c
Write an equation of the form y = kx for a proportional relationship and use it to find missing values.
7.RP.A.2d
Explain what a point on the graph of a proportional relationship means, especially (0, 0) and (1, k).
7.RP.A.2
Recognize and work with proportional relationships in tables, equations, graphs and word problems.
7.RP.A.3
Use ratios and percents in real problems: unit rates, percent of a number, tax, tip, discount, percent increase and decrease.
7.G.B.4
Know the formulas for the circumference and area of a circle and use them to solve problems.
7.NS.A.1
Add and subtract positive and negative numbers, including fractions and decimals, and picture it on a number line.
7.NS.A.2
Multiply and divide positive and negative numbers and understand why the sign rules work.
7.EE.B.4a
Solve two-step equations like 3x + 4 = 19 and 2(x + 5) = 18, and explain each step.
7.EE.A.1
Rewrite expressions using the distributive property and by combining like terms.
7.EE.B.4b
Solve two-step inequalities like 3x + 4 > 19 and graph the solution on a number line.
7.G.B.5
Use the facts about complementary, supplementary, vertical and adjacent angles to find an unknown angle.
7.G.B.6
Solve problems about the area, surface area and volume of shapes built from triangles, quadrilaterals, prisms and cubes.
7.SP.C.5
Understand probability as a number from 0 to 1 that says how likely an event is.
7.SP.C.6
Predict how often an event will happen in many trials from its probability, and compare with what actually happens.
