Welcome to

Open House

One of the cornerstone events that helps us in maintaining the home to school connection and showcasing our student's many accomplishments, is Open House. While we would prefer to host Open House in typical, in-person format, current circumstances don't permit us. Even though our school buildings have been closed, your children have continued to learn and shine. On the following pages, you will find wonderful examples of the work they have produced this year during virtual learning. We hope that you enjoy seeing and hearing about the assignments highlighted. The seventh grade STEM team thanks you for your endless support and patience in what will undoubtedly, be a year to remember.

Enjoy!

.

My Math Journey

I am proud of being able to solve algebraic expressions because i used to not know how to do it, but now i can!

One way I have improved as a student is adapting to distance learning with the help of my classmates and teachers.

A favorite assignment of mine in math has been "HW1U5 Evaluating Expressions" because i got a 100% on it and i thought i would have gotten a lower grade.

Spring Semester:
Mathematical Operations w/ Fractions
Simplifying Algebraic Expressions
Solving Algebraic Equations/Inequalities
Angles, Area, and Volume
Theoretical and Experimental Probability

math relates to our personal lives in many different froms. one example is money, you need to know how to add, subtract, multiply, divide, etc. to buy or pay for something
