Units of Study
Order + timing (approx). Spring Break is not counted in the week ranges.
| Unit | Focus | Weeks |
|---|---|---|
| U1 | Financial foundations + number fluency (estimation, multi-step money, integers) | (1–3) |
| U2 | Ratios, rates, and unit pricing (best deals, comparisons) | (4–6) |
| U3 | Percent in real life (discounts, tax, tips, percent change) | (7–9) |
| U4 | Algebra as a tool (expressions, equations, modeling) | (10–12) |
| U5 | Measurement + geometry + data wrap (design + cost per unit) | (13–16) |
How this course works
- Daily routine: warm-up → task time → practice → exit check
- Choice levels: Green / Blue / Black (you can move between levels)
- Real-world focus: money, price per unit, decision-making, problem solving
