Classroom Information

Seventh Grade Science will be inquiry based and should be a fun class for students.  We focus on four main strands for the school year. 1. Cells-We will look at what cells are and their functions.  How cells function, how they work together and what systems they create (looking at the human body, skeletal, circulatory, etc.). 2 Force and Motion-We will look at how gravity effects us.  Simple machines, how objects work with/against each other. 3. Weather and Erosion-We will look at how the water cycle and natural forces effect the rock cycle.  We will look at tectonic plates, types of rocks and explore our changing landscape of our planet. and 4. Weather and Climate-We will look at severe weather (hurricanes, snow storms, tornadoes, etc.) and how they effect humans.  Also looking at places people live and how that changes over time.
