Welcome to 7th Grade Science

In 7th grade science we mainly focus on life science.  We will look at the structure, function, adaptation, and diversity of organisms.  Instead of just leaning science facts and definitions we will be applying concepts that we learn in class to real world situations.    

You can expect a small amount of homework each night.  On a typical night it should not be more than 10 minutes worth of homework.  We will have a test about every week to week and a half.  Students can study for the tests by going to my socrative website and I have created a set of flashcards for them to practice with.  

I do not offer extra credit in class so it is important for students to do their best on all assignments.  Most homework assignments are done on the internet in your students schoology account.  On daily homework assignments the students have the oppertunity to complete the assignment three times and I will give them the best score that they recieved on their three attempts.  I do not allow corrections after the due date so it is important for students to do well on their assignments and their tests when they work on them.    

All homework, notes, flashcards, and handouts can be found on the website.  Students can also access the Educational Websites link on the left hand side of this page. 

I firmly believe that you can do anything you set your mind to.  I am looking forward to a great and exciting year. 

May the force be with you.
