Students took Friday Assessment 16 today and test corrections are available on Delta Math.
We are working through our 6th Unit (percentages) and have two units left after that: Statistics and then special topics in Geometry.
Ask your students how percentages relate to unit rate.
Ms. Perry: Our 7th graders have been stepping into the role of historians as they explore WWII. Students created annotated timelines and mapped Hitler’s aggression to better understand how the war unfolded. They also dove into key turning points like the Munich Conference, Eisenhower’s leadership, and the decision to use the atomic bomb. It’s been exciting to see students connect events and think critically about how history shapes the world—great discussions and insights all around!
Ms. Osmunson: Students wrapped up learning about the age of imperialism. Next week, students will being their study of Nationalism, Expansionism and Social Reform. Talk to your students about what nationalism means!
We are working on Unit 5 which is on influential voices. Students read and watch videos of speeches and analyze the speakers’ rhetoric. For the unit’s culminating task, students independently read and watch a video of a speech they select from a curated set. Students are also reading a graphic novel independently that they were able to choose. Each book is also on an influential person. When students complete the book they will make a group presentation on the book they read.

This time of year can bring a mix of excitement and stress for our students - final assignments, EOGs, and the anticipation of summer can feel like a lot all at once. You can support your child by encouraging consistent routines, celebrating their efforts (not just their grades), and keeping the lines of communication open at home. If you have any concerns about your child’s social-emotional well-being, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Wishing your family a strong and peaceful finish to the school year!

Happy New Year!
Prior to the break, the seventh graders did a pre-project on the Olympics by creating a mascot for the 2028 Olympic games in LA. We are continuing our Olympics unit this week by looking at how height and speed are related in sprinting. The students will do math to determine the relationship between speed and height, and discuss issues of fairness in sports.
