What Our Lions Are Learning
In 7th grade, our Lions are studying forces of motion in Science, circles in Math, story elements in ELA, and the the renaissance in Social Studies.
In 8th grade, our Lions are learning about manifest destiny and expansion in Social Studies, characterization in ELA, the hydrosphere in Science, and slope in Math.
See if your Lion can tell you about the activities they've done to master their standards!

They have raised $100 for the project. The colored glass costs $5 per square foot and the clear glass costs $2 per square foot. The material they need to join the pieces of glass together costs 10 cents per foot and the frame around the window costs $4 per foot.
Do they have enough money to cover the cost of making the window?
