Reviewer Comments:

This is a wonderful 7th grade math resource that supports the NCTM 7th grade Math Focal Points. Teachers will find a selection of links to help build their background knowledge about each topic: Ratios and Proportionality, Surface Area and Volume, and Integers and Algebra. In addition, each topic has a list of links that include games, lessons, problems, or activities for students. These are divided into categories and each link is described. The last link, "Equation Match," does not work. There are some great problem solving activities listed such as PBS Mathline and Figure This problems.
