OUTLINE MATHEMATICS GRADE 7
MODULE 1: NUMBER PATTERNS
This module deals with a variety of number patterns. Learners also learn about square and
triangular numbers. Here it is important that learners are able to recognise these number
patterns and to apply them to number rows. The pocket calculator can also be used
effectively.
Critical outcome 2 is applicable.
Because it is the first module of the year, it can take up to 3 weeks to complete.
