Students will take either Math, Honors Math, or GT Math each year while in middle school.

Math 6 MTH600

The primary focal points at Grade 6 are using operations with integers and positive rational numbers to solve problems, understanding and applying ratios and rates and using equivalent ratios to represent proportional relationships, using expressions and equations to represent relationships in a variety of contexts, understanding data representation, and financial literacy. Prerequisite: None

Honors Math 6 MTH602

This course covers 6th and some of the 7th Grade Math Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills. Everything from the math 6 course is covered with additional seventh grade content in order to compact the curriculum. This course is designed to prepare students to take Algebra 1 in their 8th grade year. Prerequisite: None

GT Math 6 MTH601

The goals of this course match the goals of the Honors Math 6 course while activities are designed for the characteristics of gifted learners. Students will learn to appreciate the moral, social, and ethical questions arising from the work of mathematicians and the application of mathematics. Prerequisite: Prosper ISD GT Identification

Math 7 MTH700

Math 7 is a course designed to continue and expand the concepts developed in elementary mathematics. This course emphasizes number and operations, proportionality, expressions, equations and relationships, probability, geometry, measurement, and data. Prerequisite: none

Honors Math 7 MTH702

Students completing this course will be expected to take Honors Algebra I during their 8th grade year. This course covers concepts from Mathematics 7 and Mathematics 8 with a concentration in Pre-Algebra and emphasizes proportionality, equations, inequalities, linear relationships, probability, geometry, measurement, and data. Prerequisite: Math 6 or Honors Math 6

GT Math 7 MTH701

The goals of this course match the goals of the Honors Math 7 course with activities designed to the characteristics of gifted learners.
