Students in 8th-grade history classes are developing their ideal road trips in various geographic regions of the United States. Each group will determine several different attractions to visit, calculate the cost of a rental car and fuel, and determine how much a hotel and food will cost for the entire trip. Each group will present their road trip to their classmates and try to persuade them to help fund (hypothetically) their road trip. #EdgewoodSTEM
7th grade science students are practicing metric measurements. #EdgewoodSTEM

Mrs. Fisher’s 7th grade social studies classes practiced various map skills by working in teams to label a world map, analyze different types of maps, compare GPS-based maps to an atlas, compare a globe with paper maps, practice latitude and longitude, and put together a very “strange” map puzzle. Understanding technology, logic, compare/contrast, map reading, and even a little engineering was needed! Students enjoyed all activities!
To support our school goal of encouraging all students to enjoy reading, Mr. Holz and Mrs. Fisher took all of their 7th grade social studies classes to the library. Mrs. Eberhardt, librarian, showed the students how to find ebooks and regular books.
Students used the scientific design process to create potential solutions to a given problem.
