Dear 7th grade Students/Parents,

I welcome everyone back to a new and exciting school year! For the 7th grade, we will be studying American history from prehistoric times to the end of the Civil War. 8th graders will be focusing on the period after the Civil up until the 21st century. We will be doing a lot of interactive and hands-on work (analyzing pictures, creating advertisements and cartoons, performing skits, etc.)

To get started, here are a few required items that you will need to start off this semester.

1) 1 marble notebook (preferably more than 100 pages)
2) 1 folder
3) Loose leaf paper
4) 2 pens, 1 pencil
5) Markers/crayons/color pencils (for in class use)
6) Glue stick

Please have these items with you within the first few days of school.


I look forward to working with all of you this school year,


Ms. Fong
7th and 8th grade social studies instructor
