7th & 8th Grade English/Writing / MS Computer Science

Mr. Chris - Colcord Middle School - Fall2024-Spring 2025

 

What do we do in this class?

7th & 8th Grade English/Writing

We focus on two different topics via Oklahoma State Standards: English and Writing

With English, we will focus on repetition and practice of basic grammar (parts of speech, sentences, punctuation, etc.) to improve our mastery of the English language. We will also focus on spelling as well. This will not only help our academic journey, but also our work and personal lives in the future. English can be tedious and usually isn't anyone's favorite subject, but we will work hard at it!

With Writing, we will focus on finding our inner voice and writing from our heart. I believe everyone can write.. and we will improve on our writing. This will not only help our academic journey, but also our work and personal lives in the future. Learning to communicate effectively is so important, and writing is one of the best ways to do so.


MS Computer Science

We will comply to Oklahoma State Standards for computer science. We will dive into computing, coding, and more. This is a great beginning class for students wanting to learn more about this area! We will work through different Units and Projects together.


We will also have fun in class, and focus on learning. If you have any questions at all, let me know. I am in the student's corner and I believe in them.
