Grade 7 turns abstract: integers, algebraic thinking, and subjects that ask for real reasoning. Here is the year as BC schools actually teach it — unit by unit, in order — so you can see what your child is working on right now, and what's coming next.
British Columbia math runs as a sequence: each unit builds on the one before it. The week ranges below follow the school year from September; teachers vary pacing.
Adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing integers with order of operations using brackets (no exponents).
Worth watching: negative numbers feel like a trick until the number line becomes second nature. Watch for "-3 minus 5 = 2"-style sign slips.
Adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing decimals with order of operations using brackets (no exponents).
Relationships between decimals, fractions, ratios, and percents including conversions, equivalency, and terminating versus repeating decimals.
Discrete linear relations using expressions, tables, and graphs, two-step equations with whole-number coefficients and solutions, and Cartesian coordinates and graphing.
The circumference and area of circles, developing C = π × d and A = π × r × r from the relationship between radius, diameter, and circumference.
The volume of rectangular prisms and cylinders (area of base × height) and combinations of transformations across four quadrants including tessellations.
Constructing and interpreting circle graphs, experimental probability with two independent events, and financial percentage calculations such as sales tax, tips, and discounts.
The temperature was −3°C and then dropped another 5 degrees. What is the temperature now?
How organisms have evolved over time, the survival needs of organisms, and natural selection as the process driving change in populations.
Elements and compounds as pure substances, the crystalline structure of solids, and chemical changes in which atoms rearrange into new products.
How electricity is generated in different ways with different environmental impacts, and electromagnetism linking electric currents and magnetic fields.
How the fossil record provides evidence for changes in biodiversity over geological time, and the evidence of climate change over geological time and the recent impacts of humans.
A metal spoon and a wooden spoon sit in the same hot soup. Why does the metal one feel hotter?
The anthropological origins of humans, including early origins in Africa, migration out of Africa, early tool use and metalworking, and the shift from hunter-gatherer to settled agricultural communities.
Human responses to geographic challenges and opportunities — climates, landforms, and natural resources — and how physical environments shaped the development and decline of ancient cultures, describing any map fully in words.
The features and characteristics of civilizations and the factors that led to their rise and fall, such as social organization, specialized workers, record keeping, complex institutions, and major urban centres.
The origins, core beliefs, narratives, and influences of religions, including at least one indigenous to the Americas, along with the scientific, philosophical, and technological developments of ancient cultures.
Interactions and exchanges between past civilizations — conflict, peace, trade, expansion, and migration — and their social, political, legal, governmental, and economic systems, including at least one indigenous to the Americas.
Unlike math and science, the language curriculum isn't taught as a sequence of units — it's a set of skills that deepen all year: reading comprehension and inference, writing structure and conventions, vocabulary, and oral communication. French works the same way. Homework Hub practises these as grade-matched weekly skills — a reading passage with real comprehension questions, a sentence to fix, a short prompt to write to — rather than pretending there's a unit list.
Homework Hub generates fresh questions matched to these very units — in season, at your child's level, marked with hints that teach. You set the days; it does the rest.

School boards and teachers vary pacing — week ranges are a typical rhythm, not a rule.
