Grade 8 CBSE Mathematics syllabus identifies age-appropriate content. During the learning of Mathematics from grade 6 to grade 8, a child:

• Moves from number sense to number patterns;
• Sees relationships between numbers and looks for patterns in relationships;
• Gains proficiency in using the newer language of Mathematics like variables, expressions, equations, identities, etc.
• Uses arithmetic and algebra to solve real-life problems and pose meaning problems;
• Discovers symmetries and acquire a sense of aesthetics by looking around regular shapes like triangles, circles, quadrilaterals, etc;
• Comprehends the idea of space as reason enclosed within boundaries of a shape;
• Relates numbers with shapes in terms of perimeter, area and volume and uses them to solve everyday life problems;
• Learns to provide reasoning and convincing arguments to justify her/his own conclusions particularly in Mathematics; and
• Collects, represents (graphically and in tables) and interprets data/information from her/his life experiences

The content of grade 8 CBSE Maths is consistent with the development of the student which includes:

• Number System
• Algebra
• Ratio and Proportion
• Geometry
• Representing 3-D in 2-D
• Quadrilaterals
• Mensuration
• Data Handling
