Mrs. Stockwell's 7th Grade Science
Welcome to 7th grade Science! This year, we will learn about Ecosystems, Cells, Genetics, and the Human Body (See tabs at the top). Along the way, we'll be conducting experiments and investigations to dig more into these topics and learn about them using the scientific method.
A little about me...I'm originally from Medford. After high school, I graduated from UW-Green Bay with degrees in Biology, Chemistry, and Secondary Education. I earned my Master's degree in Education from Columbia College in MO. My husband, Ryan, and I lived in Ohio, Missouri, Montana, and Minnesota before landing back in Medford. We have 3 sons: Owen, Rylan, and Graysen.

Q: How do I know what grade will I get on my work?

D/F answer: food
C answer: hamburgers and fries (just enough to answer it)
B answer: hamburgers or pizza, fries and milk (correct with some detail)
A answer: hamburgers or pizza, fries, fruit, and salad, your choice of chocolate or white milk...OR you can bring your own lunch too (correct with a good amount of detail)
