Day in the Life - Jackson Grade 7
中学 students take a total of eight classes, alternating four classes per day (rotating A & B天).
在上学前
Since I live in 波卡拉顿, I have a nice short 15-minute drive to school. With my brother also attending SA, I drop him off at the 较低的学校. We then drive around the back of the campus to 中学 where I catch up with friends, 提供额外的帮助, or do anything that needs to be done before heading to my first class of the day.
第一节-英语
I always look forward to walking into Ms. ·莫伊伦·的教室. From our warm-up attendance questions to our Wordle races this class is always fun. We are learning about allegories right now and we are currently working on 读ing the book “Animal Farm.” 这 book is an allegory about the Russian Revolution.
咨询/零食
After my first class of the day, I get to go to Mrs. Voguit咨询. Every Monday we do lessons teaching us about values. We use a program called Character Strong for this. 周二, 我们有一个工作块, which gives us time to finish assignments, 读, or work with our advisor to check for missing assignments. Then, on Wednesday, we have a shorter day with 15 minutes of free time. On Thursday and Friday, we watch a live stream of either Chapel or an assembly.
第二阶段-科学
Mr. Bello is my science teacher. He makes class so much fun with all the fun labs. We are currently working on chemical reactions. One reaction we did was making a formula to test acidity using pH paper.
第三期-艺术
Now, it’s on to third period with Mrs. 帕里什. In this class, we can create anything we want. I am currently working on creating the Miami Dolphins logo out of felt (A wool that is dyed a certain color.) With this being my second year with Mrs. 帕里什, I have gotten to know her really well, and I have created many amazing pieces of art.
4th Period - Global Issues
与夫人的全球问题. Voguit is just as it sounds. We learn about issues around the world and how we can help. We are learning about environmental debates and get to have our own debate against a fellow peer. I won my debate, giving me a 104% on the assignment!
