6TH
GRADE SOCIAL STUDIES THE
ROMAN EMPIRE AND INTERNATIONAL DAY
JULIUS CAESAR DECLARED HIMSELF “DICTATOR FOR LIFE”! SHORTLY AFTER THIS BOLD DECLARATION, JULIUS CAESAR WAS ASSASSINATED IN THE SENATE HOUSE. DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS IMPORTANT EVENT IN HISTORY IS CALLED? YES! THE IDES OF MARCH. THE ROMANS CREATED A VAST EMPIRE THROUGHOUT EUROPE, NORTHERN AFRICA, AND PARTS OF ASIA. ALSO, GET READY FOR INTERNATIONAL DAY. WE WILL BEGIN WORKING ON PROJECTS SOON. SCIENCE
ANIMALS SUCH AS ELEPHANTS ARE MAMMALS. FISH, REPTILES, BIRDS, AND AMPHIBIANS ARE
ALSO PART OF THE SAME GROUP OF ANIMALS KNOWN AS VERTEBRATES. THE SIXTH GRADERS ARE ALSO TALKING ABOUT
THE IMPORTANCE OF “FAMILY LIFE”. AND DON’T FORGET 4H, CONSERVATION, AND LAB
ACTIVITIES. SCIENCE HAS COVERED A
VARIETY OF ACTIVITIES THIS YEAR. THE
STUDENTS ARE VERY COOPERATIVE AND HAVE INTERESTING QUESTIONS ABOUT SCIENCE
THAT MAKE THE CLASS FUN AND ENJOYABLE!

GRADE 7
GEOGRAPHY
SOUTH AMERICA IS DIVIDED INTO 12 COUNTRIES AND 2 AREAS CLAIMED BY EUROPEAN NATIONS. CAN YOU NAME THE 2 AREAS CLAIMED BY FRANCE AND GREAT BRITAIN? DID YOU GUESS FRENCH GUIANA AND THE FALKLAND ISLANDS? THAT’S RIGHT! NEXT, WE WILL COVER AFRICA AND THE MANY NATIONS THAT MAKE UP THE GEOGRAPHY OF THIS LARGE CONTINENT.
AMERICAN HISTORY
THE
AMERICAN REVOLUTION AND THE U.S. CONSTITUTION ARE MAJOR PARTS OF THIS GREAT
NATION’S HISTORY. THE SEVENTH GRADE
WILL STUDY THE IMPORTANCE OF THE EVENTS LEADING UP TO THE BIRTH OF THE UNITED
STATES OF AMERICA. ALSO, WE WILL
RECOGNIZE THE SACRIFICE AND HARD WORK OF THOSE WHO ESTABLISHED A GOVERNMENT
FOR ALL PEOPLE.
