1 Seventh-Grade Curriculum Guide Seventh Grade Islander Middle School teachers support seventh grade students in their growing independence and self-awareness. The academic program is based on an understanding of the needs of adolescents and teachers provide support, guidance, and academic challenge to assist seventh graders in their academic progress. Students are exposed to a wide range of learning opportunities this year, including their ability to select electives. Students are provided with continuing opportunities to understand that their learning is valuable and worthwhile and to apply their knowledge to situations outside of the classroom. Required Language Arts 7 Social Studies 7 Math 7, or Pre-Algebra, or Algebra, or Geometry Science 7 P.E. 1 Trimester required (may be waived with directed athletics. Electives Seventh-Grade Curriculum Choose from list of Year-Long and/or Trimester-Long classes Language Arts 7 Literacy skills are the focus of the seventh grade language arts program and include the intentional teaching of reading, writing, and speaking. All curriculum is aligned with the Washington State Essential Academic Requirements and Grade Level Expectations for the seventh grade. Reading instruction for both literary and informational sources takes place through the study of a large variety of and assessed throughout the year. Writing instruction focuses on the expository and persuasive modes as the MSP (Measurements of Student Progress) administered in the spring targets these two areas. However, students are not limited to these two modes and year. Communication skills, which include speaking and listening, are practiced throughout the year and integrated into all areas of the curriculum.
2 Social Studies 7 The social studies curriculum incorporates all reading and writing skills within the study of Washington State history. The study of the state, from its earliest times to modern day, is examined through the four strands of social studies: history, civics, geography, and economics. Students will study the past and its connection to the present research project, all seventh grade students will participate in the Celebration of our Cultures, an individual written and oral presentation celebrating the student s own family history. Passing this course completes a Washington State high school requirement. Math 7 Students in Math 7 will be addressing several learning targets with an emphasis on problem solving, communicating mathematically, application of concepts, and building a foundation for Algebraic thinking. The concepts of - Pythagorean theorem and similar triangles. Other areas covered are data analysis and statistics, graphing including an introduction to slope, and probability. Pre-Algebra Pre-Algebra extends and culminates previous math skills and concepts from 7th grade targets, transitioning students to the more specialized math courses of Algebra and Geometry. The formal methods of Algebra introduced in seventh grade math are extended as students explore linear functions and solve more complex equations and inequalities. Students model problems with mathematical functions represented by graphs and equations, eventually learning to interpret the slope of various functions in contextual situations. They connect measurement and Pythagorean Theorem. They build on their experience of organizing and interpreting data, creating displays for 2 data sets in order to compare, analyze and draw conclusions. Mean, median and mode are used to summarize and describe information and students expand their work with probability to deal with more complex situations and displays. To prepare for high school level math courses, students deal with additional key topics involving num- variables. To better understand the full breadth of the real-number system, students are introduced to sets of num- solving skills as they move more fully into the symbolic world of algebra. They learn to communicate mathematical ideas, to make generalizations, to draw logical conclusions and to verify the reasonableness of their solutions. Algebra number system. This course examines symbolic representations in solving real-world problems. Linear functions, quadratic functions, systems of equations, and problem solving are some of the topics within the enriching course outline. Graphing, both as a means of displaying data and analyzing data in one or two dimensions, is an integral part of this course. A solid foundation in arithmetic and pre-algebra skills is essential for success in this course. When IMS students become juniors at Mercer Island High School, they will have the option to have their middle school Algebra grade posted to their Mercer Island High School transcript. If a student chooses not to have their Algebra grade on their transcript, they will not receive high school credit for the course. Geometry Geometry is the second year in a three-year college prep math sequence. In this course, students will develop a logical system of thought. Geometry focuses on plane geometry with integration of some space and coordinate geometry. This course develops geometric concepts using formal proofs and algebraic applications. Algebra is used
3 extensively for areas, volumes, lengths, angle measures, and graphing. Thus, successful completion of Algebra I is essential. When IMS students become juniors at Mercer Island High School, they will have the option to have their middle school Geometry grade posted to their Mercer Island High School transcript. If a student chooses not to have their Geometry grade on their transcript, they will not receive high school credit for the course.
