Mrs. Sushames: Grade 7 Science and Math at Parklands High

Hello families! As the term wraps up, I’d like to share a quick overview of what our Grade 7 students achieved in their science and math classes this term.

Science Highlights:

Our students explored the diversity of life through hands-on activities like recording flora and fauna with iNaturalist, dissecting plants, and classifying organisms using dichotomous keys. They also grew fungi and researched microorganisms, gaining practical experience in biological classification. In ecosystems, they built food webs, examined how climate change impacts environments, and discussed ways to protect our planet.

Math Highlights:

In math, students focused on Algebra and Statistics. They Students recognized and used variables like X to represent everyday formulas and created graphs with real weather data. They also practiced collecting and analysing data, learning how to interpret patterns and outliers.

Throughout the term, students engaged actively with the material, developing both their scientific understanding and problem-solving skills. I look forward to seeing their continued curiosity and growth next term!
