This resource includes 48 essential questions for 7th Grade Math. Students will be researching the answer to the essential question. They will solve problems, create their own problem, and reflect. This is set up very student and teacher friendly! There is a grading rubric included at the bottom of each essential question. The essential questions are given below! 7.NS - Number Sense 1.) How do we know when the sum of two integers is positive, negative, or zero? 2.) What is the difference from taking the opposite of a number or taking the absolute value? 3.) How do we know when the product or quotient of two integers is positive or negative? 4.) When is it useful to find the least common multiple? 5.) When is it useful to find the greatest common factor? 6.) How do I add and subtract fractions with "like denominators"? 7.) How do I add and subtract fractions with "unlike denominators"? 8.) How does multiplying fractions relate to real world problems? 9.) How does dividing fractions relate to real world problems? 7.RP - Ratios & Proportional Relationships 1.) What is the difference between a rate and ratio? 2.) How do I determine the unit rate? 3.) How do I find the constant of proportionality given an equation? 4.) How do I find the constant of proportionality given a graph? 5.) How do I find the constant of proportionality given a table? 6.) What is the relationship between decimals, fractions, and percents? 7.) What is the difference between a markup and markdown? 8.) How do you calculate sales tax in your state? 9.)
