The following courses are included in the full-year 7th grade online learning program:
7th Grade Mathematics
Have you ever wondered, “When will I use this in real life?” Grade 7 Mathematics has great news! There are hundreds of ways that math is used in the real world, and this course is designed to help you think critically as you explore a few of those applications. With hands-on activities and interactive lessons, students will have the opportunity to apply what they learn in relevant ways. Key foundational concepts like proportional relationships, probability, and geometry will help prepare students for the next level of learning. Instructional time for Grade 7 Mathematics will emphasize five areas:
- recognizing that fractions, decimals, and percentages are different representations of rational numbers and performing all four operations with rational numbers with procedural fluency
- creating equivalent expressions and solving equations and inequalities
- developing understanding of and applying proportional relationships in two variables
- extending analysis of two- and three-dimensional figures to include circles and cylinders
- representing and comparing categorical and numerical data and developing understanding of probability
Comprehensive Science 2
M/J Comprehensive Science 2 is the second in a series of three consecutive middle school science classes. It builds on concepts introduced in the first course of the series, including the disciplines of life science, physical science, and earth-space science. In addition, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) concepts are integrated throughout the course.
English Language Arts 2
Through a theme of finding their voice, students in the M/J Language Arts 2 course study the ways in which word choice and sentence structure contribute to developing perspective. Students continue to develop the reading, writing, language, and speaking/listening skills necessary for success in college, career, and beyond with a strong connection to civics throughout the centuries. Students closely examine voice, purpose, diction, syntax, and rhetoric in historical speeches, informational texts, and classic and contemporary literature through guided readings, interactive practice, and formal assessments. They also grow their narrative, informational, and argumentative writing skills through the repeated practice of planning, drafting, revising, and editing their written work.
Civics
Learning about civics gives students the skills and knowledge necessary to be active citizens who have a positive impact on their communities. In this course, students discover the rights and responsibilities of citizenship in the United States. They learn about the structure of the government and how it works at the local, state, and federal levels. This course examines elections, the lawmaking process, and how citizens can impact public policy. Students also discover ways the United States interacts with countries around the world. Geography and economics support the learning of civics in this course. Engaging in this study prepares students to be informed citizens who are ready to participate in American democracy!
Visual Arts II
Inspiration comes from anywhere. In MJ Visual Art II, you will explore artistic themes as you create your own portrait, earth, paper, Pop, and globally inspired art. Whether this is your first art course or one of many in your artistic journey, it will help grow your skills and techniques, as you experiment with mediums like drawing, painting, sculpting, mixed media, and even digital art. You’ll need to purchase supplies for this class. But don’t worry, you have choices in what you can use!
Computer Science Discoveries 1
