This full-year course introduces students to a basic working knowledge of performance concepts that can be applied to all dance forms. Students will create, perform, and respond to dance through creative movement, social/cultural dance, ballet, modern jazz, choreography, and composition. Students will learn and apply dance concepts and vocabulary through class discussion, performance, demonstration, and selfreflection.

Students will expand their skills by providing authentic school-based experiences connected to skills needed for future employment and community life. These experiences will be based on appropriate communication, self-advocacy and learning behaviors needed for any job or career. Students will effectively use purposeful and appropriate communication across all settings, exhibit behavior that matches their tasks and/or environment, and decrease the need for adult prompting and increase engagement for instruction/ learning. This course is designed for students with IEPs who are working toward a Maryland Certificate of Program Completion.

Mathematics
This seminar course is designed to provide support through an engaging additional period of mathematics. Units are designed to parallel and strengthen the mathematics being taught in the Mathematics 7 class. Students will develop a deep understanding of mathematics by exploring real-world applications and connections to the concepts, skills, and practices they are learning. This course is taken concurrently with Mathematics 7.
Mathematics
In this course, students will focus on the in-depth mastery of five critical areas: 1) developing understanding and investigating relationships between quantities and reasoning with equations; 2) developing understanding and applying linear and exponential relationships; 3) performing arithmetic operations on polynomial expressions, solving equations, inequalities, and systems of equations; 4) using properties of rational and irrational numbers to develop an understanding of quadratic functions, and 5) investigating trends and modeling with descriptive statistics. Course requirements are rigorous and emphasize the use of mathematical modeling to solve applications-based problems and other high cognitive demand tasks. One high school mathematics credit will be awarded upon successful completion of this course. See Credit for High School Courses Taken in Middle School, page 7 for more information.
Mathematics
Physical Education
Instructional emphasis will focus on developing skills through games, sports, and group or individual activities. Students will apply motor skills, movement patterns, and game strategies in a dynamic environment. Students will identify factors and activities that contribute to a personal fitness plan. They have the opportunity to self-officiate and problem solve throughout an assortment of activities. Most importantly, students will continue to analyze the importance of physical activity. Areas of instruction include movement patterns and concepts, fitness and physical activity, and personal and social behavior.
Physical Education
Science
This course is comprised of units designed to address earth science ideas from the Maryland Science Standards. There are six earth science topics in middle school addressed through six units: Space Systems, History of Earth, Earth’s Interior Systems, Earth’s Surface Systems, Weather and Climate, and Human Impacts. Units are organized around a driving question. Within each driving question, students engage in a series of hands-on learning experiences that are carefully designed to immerse them in a collaborative learning environment. Students utilize the science and engineering practices as they construct their understanding of important concepts. Students also have opportunities to learn and apply engineering specific practices such as designing solutions to identified problems.
