Seventh Grade: What Will They Learn?

The learning pace increases in seventh grade because kids are asked to handle a more challenging curriculum and do independent projects in many of their subjects. The curriculum also broadens beyond language arts, math, social studies, and science. Your child will have daily classes in such areas as foreign language, art, music, health, home economics, shop, keyboarding, and physical education. Find out what else your child will learn this year.
