Unit 6: Adaptation

Today we began Unit 6, our last unit of the school year. Unit 6 is called Inquiry into Arguments: Integrating Media. Our overarching concept for this unit will be adaptation.

We would like students to begin thinking about how they will adapt to the changes that 7th grade brings. One of the most important parts of middle school are the habits that are built and practiced that lead to success in high school. 

In order to understand and apply adaptation to their lives, students will be analyzing songs, poems, quotes, and articles. Please see our "What Are We Studying" tab for more information and standards that will be assessed during this unit.

Following is a video I showed today in class that students encouraged me to put on our classroom website so they could access it from home. I encourage you to watch it and discuss it with your child.
