CAPS · Grade 7

Grade 7 homework help, in line with CAPS

Grade 7 is in the Senior Phase (Grades 7 to 9). New subjects like Technology and EMS start, Life Skills becomes Life Orientation, and maths moves to algebra. Slimkop helps your child understand the method, not just finish the worksheet.

The one rule

Slimkop never gives the answer. It asks the question that helps your child work it out, and a right answer only counts once they can explain it.

What your Grade 7 child gets

  • Help with homework and projects in every subject, step by step. Slimkop never gives the answer: your child works it out.
  • A photo of the homework is enough to start.
  • Mock exams: a quick test (5 questions, 20 minutes) or a full Grade 7 exam of 60 marks in 1 hour 30 minutes.
  • Daily reading: a new Grade 7 comprehension story every day, about 1 300 to 1 500 words, with 10 questions.
  • Built on the official CAPS documents, plus free DBE workbooks and Siyavula textbooks.
  • In English or Afrikaans: your child picks.
  • In Parent view you see every chat, the time spent and the marks per CAPS topic.

How Slimkop helps a Grade 7 learner

An example Grade 7 Maths lesson. The child gives every answer; Slimkop asks the next question.

  1. SlimkopLet's try one. What is −3 + 8?
  2. Child−11
  3. SlimkopLet's use a number line. Start at −3. Adding 8 means moving which way?
  4. ChildRight
  5. SlimkopYes. From −3, how many steps right to reach 0?
  6. Child3
  7. SlimkopRight, 3 steps gets us to 0. We had 8 steps to take, so how many are left after 0?
  8. Child5
  9. SlimkopSo where do we land?
  10. ChildOn 5
  11. SlimkopYes! 5. Moving right from −3: 3 steps to zero, then 5 more. Try −7 + 4 next: will you land above or below zero?
