Poetry....metaphor....simile.....and my personal favorite idioms...

Poetry is the course of study we will be embarking on in early March just in time to explore spring with all our senses.

Thank you to Eunice Sierra and Susan Spina for volunteering to chair Special Person's Day. I believe it was the BEST ever!!! Of course, the day wouldn't have been successful without the dedication of all the 7th grade parents. Now the 7th grade class is diligently working to put on the 8th grade dinner dance. As a teacher, it is amazing to watch all the ideas meld together to form a spectacular event. Good luck and thank you.

7th grade has finished their Healthy Boundaries unit and are now learning about the New Testament. I was talking to a 7th grader a few days ago and he told me "You know, Mrs. Marquez, it seems to me that the religion books end all the lessons with the same message...love one another... just love."   Yet another reason why 7th graders are awesome!
