Year-End Review

Author’s Note: This is my final Year-end wrap up. My final piece of 7th grade. I just wanted to tell you just how my 7th grade year went.

This was a very different year. Not exactly the type of classes most school goers have. There were good things and some bad things about it. Overall This has been one of the best years ever.

First of all, I wasn’t in regular classes, I was in Academy 21. I know what you are probably thinking “What is Academy 21?” Well, Academy 21 is a project based year of learning. You choose the project and how you present it. During the project you have to hit certain area like social studies or science.

While doing that we also did a program called Aleks. Which is a supplement to a  real math class since there isn’t to much math in our project. It really helped me, because I was able to finish 2 years of math in just 7th grade. Now I get to go to the high math class.

During resource we have seminars. Which are like regulars classes but for a short amount of time. We were able to request something that we were struggling with and we may work on that for the next seminar.

Like most people We still have electives like gym or french. My electives were gym, french, band, tech ed, and robotics. We also started a literature/book club. We meet every A day during 5th hour.

This 7th grade was one of the best years ever. It was a great experience to have during the school years. Next I will being going back to regular classes. Also this year went extremely fast. Though it was a fun year I can’t wait for summer.
