Our class spent the morning discussion God's promises to Abram in the Old Testament and His promises to us today.  What a comfort God's Word brings to our lives!  The students made a poster with a symbol of a promise they like to remember along with a Bible verse they found to go with it.  They will decorate our room for the next few weeks.

Summer Days in 7th Grade

  This week we had so much fun! From Religion to Literature our days go by so fast. In Religion we have been learning about creation and we all did awesome on our creation quiz. In History we learned about feudalism during the Middle Ages. We are currently working on our feudalism projects where we will present different roles of the social hierarchy. In English Mrs. Beaty makes learning fun and exciting. This week she has taught us the different kinds of nouns.  Spelling is fun too. With Mr. Marlof  and Mrs. Riemenschneider teaching math we have increased our math skills. Science we have been doing labs. They are fun, even if our bread did not grow mold. In Literature we have read many stories all ready.
We are having a lot of fun in 7th grade!
