Course Outline

We will follow North Carolina's Common Core Essential State Standards. My goal is for you to be well prepared to pass the 7th grade End of Grade test in May so that you will move on confidently to 8th grade in 2013!

Seventh grade students use oral language, written language, and media and technology for argument, informative, narrative, critical, and literary purposes. Students also explore the structure of language and study grammatical rules in order to speak and write effectively. While emphasis in seventh grade is placed on argument, students also:
  • Express individual perspectives in response to personal, social, cultural, and historical issues
  • Interpret and synthesize information
  • Critically analyze print and non-print communication
  • Use effective sentence construction and edit for improvements in sentence formation, usage, mechanics, and spelling
  • Interpret and evaluate a wide range of literature
