Math 7: Fundamentals of Math

Course Description

Fundamentals of Math seeks to firm up the math foundation laid in previous years, filling in any cracks and misunderstandings of the basic structure of our math system. Whole numbers, number theory, equations, decimals, and fractions are emphasized in the context of understanding how these principles work, going beyond rote memorization of procedures. Measurements, both customary and metric, principles of geometry, as well as percent, sets, and statistics complete the basic groundwork necessary for developing the confidence and competence needed to solve real-life problems.

Mrs. Anita Sedivy, BS

Mrs. Anite SedivyMrs. Sedivy taught math for five years both on the junior high and high school levels. "One of the most important keys to math is having the right foundation. Math is a subject continually building on previous concepts. Understanding why a problem is worked a certain way, instead of memorizing what to do, helps unlock the next problem. I enjoy teaching students to think, which is a necessary skill for any area of service the Lord may have for them."
