During my 7th grade year, I didn't have many friends because I was virtual in 6th grade. In the seventh everyone was face to face but everyone was wearing a mask so I couldn't recognize anyone. I really didn't talk to anyone but I slowly started making friends. During my seventh grade year, I did many things. For example, I did my Encounters Research Project. I had to work really hard because it was a really important grade. I had to work at school and also at home. I also went on a zoo field trip for my encounters class I had a lot of fun because I got to hang out with my friends. I also was a role model for the upcoming 6th graders. For my Pals class, I had to tour many of the 5th graders that were going to be next year's 6th graders. These 5th graders were really nice and I had a lot of fun. Over all my 7th grade year was my favorite year because I had so much fun with my new friends.
