Seventh Grade Homeschool Curriculum for Curious, Creative Thinkers

Oak Meadow’s 7th grade homeschool curriculum invites students to explore the world through hands-on projects, thoughtful reading, and creative expression. With subject-specific coursebooks in English, Social Studies, Science, and Math, students are guided through a year of academic growth that encourages independent thought and global awareness.
In seventh grade, students examine industrialization, civil rights, and global governance, build their skills in grammar and composition, and explore Earth science topics like geology, meteorology, and environmental change. Activities like model rocket construction and Shakespearean recitations make learning engaging and memorable.
This year’s science curriculum includes a hands-on lab manual for guided experiments, student-led inquiry, and project-based learning.
