As the first semester of the 2022 - 2023 school year comes to an end, the 7th grade scholars are deep into their notes in preparation to exhibit the concepts retained since August. Through a PBL project and an end-of-the-semester exam, students will show their extensive knowledge of the number system, expressions and equations.

Hello Parents,
During this time of the year, students are transitioning from full instruction to adding a little bit more test prep to better prepare for milestones. We also just started a new novel called Patient Zero, it is a full informational text, so students may struggle a bit with their assignments. Please reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns.

Greetings! In 7th Grade Life Science, students have been learning all about cell organelles. Students demonstrated their mastery of the curriculum by completing physical and conceptual models of plant and animal cells. Students will extend their knowledge of cells to the Trout in the Classroom Project currently underway in our Trout Hatchery Lab. Not only are students learning about the life cycle of trout, they also are gaining a deeper knowledge of the role that cells play in the trout life cycle; including, meiosis, mitosis, cell differentiation, and how multi-cellular organisms grow. Bonus connections with the TIC Program include a basic understanding of biotic and abiotic ecological factors, and why trout species should be conserved. Additionally, students are developing critical thinking skills by reflecting on the successes and challenges of raising living organisms according to their survival needs.

In 7th Grade Social Studies, students are learning government terms through the use of the Taboo Game structure where students have to guess the terms. Students will Complete Shark Tank Activity Where they will need to come up with a business proposal that would include all the economic resources they would need for that business and/or invention. Students needed to make sure they answered these questions like; What is your business/invention? How much money are you asking the “Sharks” to invest in? Why should the “sharks” invest in your business? What capital, human, and natural resources do you need for your business or product?
