Math: We will master math topics such as Algebra, fractions, decimals, and geometry. Through the use of problem solving strategies and math activities the students will be prepared for experiences in the real world. We use the McGraw-Hill curriculum for our learning.
Science: In 6th grade we study Earth Science. 7th grade studies Life Science and 8th grade studies Physical science. We do projects from weather reporting, frog dissection to building simple machines. Each year the students use the scientific method through their science fair projects. Students participate locally and regionally in this activity. The curriculum we use is Savvas. Grades 6 and 8 participate in an environmental learning experience at Deep Portage. This is a multiple day opportunity that enriches their educational learning.
