Grade 7 turns abstract: integers, algebraic thinking, and subjects that ask for real reasoning. Here is the year as Ontario 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.
Ontario 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.
Integers and rational numbers (fractions and decimals) and operations with them.
Ratios, rates, proportions and percents in real-world contexts.
Variables, expressions, and solving linear equations.
Angle relationships, parallel lines, and the circumference and area of circles (no inscribed or central angle theorems — those are high-school topics).
Area and circumference of circles; surface area and volume of prisms.
Sampling, data analysis and representation; theoretical and experimental probability.
Budgets, interest, exchange rates, and informed financial decisions.
The temperature was −3°C and then dropped another 5 degrees. What is the temperature now?
Interactions between and among biotic and abiotic components in the environment.
The nature of matter, including the properties of pure substances and mixtures, and describe these properties using particle theory.
The relationship between structural forms and the forces acting on them.
Heat as a form of energy that is associated with the movement of particles and is essential for many natural processes within Earth’s systems.
A metal spoon and a wooden spoon sit in the same hot soup. Why does the metal one feel hotter?
In Ontario, Grades 7–8 split Social Studies into separate History and Geography strands — just like at school.
Life in New France and British North America (1713–1800) — the different peoples of the time (First Nations, French, and British) and how they lived, worked, and interacted; where relationships involved tension, treat it honestly at a general level and from multiple perspectives, without graphic detail or taking sides.
How life in Canada changed from 1800 to 1850 — immigration, growth, and the changing ways of life of different communities; where there was conflict or hardship (such as rebellions or growing pressures on First Peoples), describe it honestly at a general level and from multiple perspectives, focused on understanding rather than distressing detail.
Physical patterns in a changing world — landforms, climate, and natural events; describe any map or data in words.
Natural resources around the world: their use, distribution, and sustainability; describe any map or data in words.
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.
