7/8 Sociology classes spent time working on "The History & Origin of Halloween" research that they used to create a display wall at BMS for Fall Fest. They gathered information about the roots of Halloween, the inspiration for our Halloween activities, and the ways in which Halloween is celebrated in other cultures. Check it out on Saturday, October 19th, or during conferences next week!
In 7th grade ELA, students are wrapping up their first book reports, showcasing their analytical skills and understanding of various texts. They are also nearing the end of the novel "Stand Tall," which explores themes of resilience and self-acceptance. Following this, the class will complete their first unit focused on “How different generations can learn from each other,” encouraging discussions about values and perspectives across age groups. This curriculum aims to enhance reading, writing, and critical thinking skills while fostering empathy and respect for diverse viewpoints.
