Core Class Updates
Students have gotten a strong start to their Unit on Earth's Weather.
They have developed great questions about a natural phenomenon to help guide us on our journey to learn more about weather.... Be sure to ask them about ther takeaway on this! We are working on a "Journey of a Water Molecule" project which allows them to show their understanding of the water cycle in new & creative ways.
Make-ups & corrections for our Atmosphere Unit Assessment must be completed by Friday (11/21) for Mrs. Osmunson & Monday (11/24) for Mrs. Corbitt. Please check-in on your students progress in Infinite Campus & feel free to reach out!
Please consider donating $5 for lab supplies if you are able; you can send cash or check in with your student any time or follow the QR code below!
Students took Friday Assessment #9 today on fraction division. They have until 12/12 to complete test corrections. Friday Assessment #7 and #8 are now closed and those grades can no longer be changed.
Remember, during second quarter, students will only have 3 weeks to complete test corrections and finish missing work.
Ms. Tart sent an email home to her students' families - please see this link for a copy if you did not receive the email.
We will start working with negative numbers next week and after Thanksgiving Break.
Students explored how major events shaped China and Japan! They learned how population growth and corruption weakened the Qing Dynasty, how the Opium Wars opened China to the world, and how Japan tried to stay isolated during the Tokugawa Shogunate. Students also discovered how trade and inflation sparked big changes during the Meiji Restoration. It’s been an exciting journey through East Asia’s past as students connect history to the world we live in today!
This week we started unit 2 which will explore the question how can one of the most important times in our lives also be one of the most challenging? Adolescence is a pivotal time full of change and new experiences, yet it can also be difficult. In this 360 Unit, students will explore the unique, complicated, and even comical experiences and lessons of adolescence. They’ll read articles, stories, and poems about teens navigating this time in their lives. They’ll learn about changes that occur in the adolescent brain and consider how these changes influence teen behavior and decisions. While students weigh in on these important concepts, they’ll also learn new reading, writing, discussion, and grammar skills. Students also began their book club book this week and started working on their tri-fold that will be their project that will go with their book.

Throughout the past few weeks, I have had the pleasure of visiting Social Studies classes to re-introduce myself to the 7th graders. I helped transition these students from elementary school to middle school (if your child went to one of our feeder schools), got to be the counselor for half of the 6th grade last year (those on Endeavour), and now they are all mine for the rest of their middle school journey!
A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of meeting our new students at a welcome breakfast. I was the new kid when I entered 7th grade and remember how that felt, so it is important to me to have this time and space for them to connect with each other and with me.
I look forward to continuing on our journey together through middle school!

This week in AIG, seventh graders were introduced to their first project. They will be creating a slideshow that has tips for students new to middle school. They will do some research into adolescent psychology and reflect on their sixth grade year to come up with their tips. Then they will put them together into an engaging slideshow, and present it. Students will utilize speaker notes, a script, or notecards as they present.
