     7th Grade

     

    Health
    Students learn about changes taking place during adolescence. It includes units on growth, sexual development, acne, teenage depression, and suicide, changing family, diseases, dating, dieting, eating disorders and making choices about drugs and alcohol. With a better understanding of all of these changes and pressures, we hope each student will be better able to handle adolescence.

     

    Physical Education: 
    Physical education in seventh grade continues its focus on team sports. Basic skills and a general understanding of the sport, with an emphasis upon good sportsmanship and teamwork, are presented. Soccer, basketball, volleyball and floor hockey are some of the activities students will participate in to practice the team concept.
