A Student’s View of 7th grade at CCS by Ryan Gasparrini

rsz_img_0226Seventh Grade from a Student’s Eye

In English class we read a classic book filled with adventure, drama, and suspense.  We also study the wonderful English language and write poetry and essays.  We can see how God has given us the ability to read, write, and speak a language many people are familiar with. 

In World History we study cultures between the 1550-1800’s.  We learn their past mistakes, their religious beliefs, and how their countries were formed.  We can see that God has influenced the timeline and knows when countries will begin and end. 

In Pre-Algebra, we study the complicated, yet interesting, Pre-Algebra.  We can see the creativity of God through this subject. 

In Life Science we study the wonderful living things that God has put on the beautiful earth.  We learn the workings of many living animals and plants.  God is easily seen through this subject. 

In fifth period, we study the books of the Old Testament and see how hard their lives were, see their beliefs and mistakes.  It is amazing to see how God has preserved these wonderful life lessons through the years. 

In Logic class, we study fallacies, the invalidities in arguments, or talk about reasoning.  We also may form arguments to combat the fallacies or form non-fallacious arguments.  We can clearly see how God has created the ability in us to tell when something is wrong. 

In Latin class, we study the incredibly detailed language of the Romans.  We translate Latin sentences, make Latin sentences, or learn Latin grammar.  We can clearly see how God put the creativity in us to create language.
