Hello 7th Grade Families! I am so excited to work with your kiddos this year. I will be the seventh grade advisor for the 2024-2025 school year. I look forward to working with your kids, but I am also eager to partner with you all to best meet the needs of each individual. I have had so much fun getting to know each of the seventh graders in this first week. I know we are going to have a great year. Below you will find an update from each class. We will use these blurbs to notify you of upcoming tests, projects, and exhibitions.
Mr. Rouse Language Arts-

Miss Keding The Arts-
- We began a short back to school rap that prompts them to rhythmically share something they like to do, what they like about it, somewhere they went this summer and what they liked about it. We will practice putting these to a beat to share with eachother.
- Discussed our weekly “Music Journal” that we will keep this year. Every Friday, students will come into class, get their journal folder (which we will be decorating) and write a response to a musical question/idea that will be on the board.
