Ms. Kaufman's Class

Welcome to 7th Grade Science and Language Arts!

In science this year we'll be covering topics in life science, exploring ecosystems, cells, and the human body. Our field work will take us into the habitats around the middle school as we dive into biology all around us.

In Language Arts students should expect to be reading and writing in a variety of genres. Students are expected to have an independent reading book with them at all times so get those library cards warmed up and ready!

This page is in the process of being updated for the 2019-2020 school year. Please be patient!

Links at the top of the page go to my weekly blog and google calendar assignments for each class.

The best way to help your student is to encourage them to use their planner and to check that planner together each night!
