7th Grade
June 2010

Dear Parents,

The end of the school year is here. Below is a summary of the summer assignments for English and Math. I have enjoyed working with the boys and girls this year and look forward to another exciting school year in 2010-11. Thank you for your continued support.

For English, all incoming seventh graders are required to read two books. All seventh graders will read “The Ever-After Bird”, by Ann Rinaldi. There is no written assignment for this book; however, there will be class discussions, activities, and assessments on this book during the first two weeks of school For the second book, students may choose from “Homeless Bird” by Gloria Whelan, or “Al Capone Does My Shirts” by Gennifer Choldenko. There is an assignment for the second book, and it is due on the first day of school. Specific information related to the assignment and books will be mailed home shortly.

For Math, all incoming seventh graders are required to complete a mathematics packet. The packet will be mailed home. Please keep the packet in a safe spot during the summer months. The entire packet should be completed by the first day of school and will be a major project grade for the first marking period.

Have a Safe Summer!
T. Jerry
