At Seven Hills, Middle School math is more than memorizing equations and ratios. Our students learn to apply mathematical thinking to everyday life.
Everyday Applications
When students see the practical ways they can use what they learn in math class, they approach it eagerly and diligently, recognizing it as an essential language that helps them understand their world. Our program applies mathematical thinking to everyday life, in carefully structured paths that expand students’ horizons beyond arithmetic, strengthen their problem-solving skills, and launch them into the study of algebra. As they increase their mathematical fluency and discover the richness of mathematical patterns and structures, students also begin to appreciate the intrinsic beauty of numbers and how they relate to and interact with each other.
