The topic of focus in the chapter is fraction division. Students also do some problem solving with fractions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn chapter 8, students are introduced to integers. They plot points in all four quadrants of the coordinate plane and learn to add and subtract with negative numbers. Multiplication and division of integers are studied in 7th grade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn geometry (chapter 9), the focus is on \u003cstrong\u003ethe area of polygons\u003c\/strong\u003e. This is studied in a logical progression: first, the area of right triangles, then the area of parallelograms, then, the area of triangles, and lastly the area of polygons. We also review some topics from earlier grades (quadrilaterals, perimeter, basic drawing). Other major topics in this chapter are calculating \u003cstrong\u003esurface area\u003c\/strong\u003e of some solids using nets, and volume of rectangular prisms with fractional edge lengths.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLastly, in chapter 10, students study\u003cstrong\u003e statistics\u003c\/strong\u003e. The focus idea is that of a statistical distribution. Students learn about measures of center and measures of variability, and how to summarize distributions using those. They learn how to make dot plots, histograms, boxplots, and stem-and-leaf plots.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis curriculum is essentially the same as the U.S. version of Math Mammoth, only customized for the Canadian audience in these aspects: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe curriculum uses the metric measurement units.
