It is awesome to be back to school. I am so excited to be back with all the students.   We will spend our time this year, learning, growing, praying, and playing. I know it is going to be an amazing year.   

I will update pictures of things going on in and out of the classroom and the year goes on so please check it out. 

Please make sure you check your child's google classroom page with them, there are many announcements and copies of paperwork posted here. Study guides and root word lists can also be found here. I post many of the assignment pages here in case someone forgets the paper at school. 

Check out the calendar for upcoming events as well. 

Thanks for all your support.

Welcome to 7th grade Science. This year we will cover some Biology, Physics, and Ecology. We will pick up where you left off in 6th grade with a continuation of Cells. This will lead us into a unit on  Genetics. Ecology, Diversity of Living things, and Life over Time with be our second area of study.  We will then switch gears and move into Force and Motion for our final unit. We will have a dissection in the spring. This is a general introduction to dissection and should not be worried about. 

This year we will start with unit 1 from our Collections book, this is on Bold actions. We will then have a unit on perceptions and reality before we move into our first novel, The Outsiders.  In the second semester, we will cover non-fiction, fiction, continue with units from our text as well as a Poetry unit.  We will spend time each week with  Assessment practice in short segments. We will end the year with a study of the novel The Giver.

In 8th grade we go into great depth into our topicsWe will focus on Biology and Chemistry. We will cover the Human body and all the systems. The students will then complete a project incorporating the Human body as well as give them a chance to practice public speaking. They will master one body system and expalin it to their Dr. Office. We will also cover Chemistry and the periodic table. We will cover acids and bases in the spring. At the end of the year we will complete a dissection in class.
