Grade 7 Main Lesson Blocks

Maths

In Grade 7, students deepen their capacity to perceive relationship, balance, and proportion through the study of ratios. Building on concrete experience, they move toward increasingly abstract thinking, preparing the ground for directed numbers and introductory algebra.

The work strengthens logical clarity, practical reasoning, and confidence in handling real-world quantitative relationships.

Block 1: Ratio and Proportion

​

Topics Include:

​

  • Ratio as relationship and comparison

  • Writing and simplifying ratios

  • Equivalent ratios

  • Proportion as equality of ratios

  • Cross-multiplication as emerging lawfulness

  • Word problems from daily life

  • Scale, maps, mixtures, speed contexts

Block 2: Introduction to Algebra

​

Topics Include:

​

  • Integers and directed numbers

  • Use of letters and symbols - variables

  • Simple linear equations

  • Balancing equations (lawfulness & equality)

  • Translating word problems into equations

  • Order of operations revisited

  • Evaluating expressions

Physics

In Grade 7, physics meets the student’s growing capacity for causal thinking and independent judgment. Natural phenomena are explored through direct experiment and careful observation, allowing laws to emerge from experience rather than abstraction.

​

Through the study of mechanics, optics, acoustics, and basic electricity, students discover order and relationship within the physical world. This strengthens clarity of thought while deepening respect for the lawful structure underlying everyday experience.

Block 1: Acoustics, Electricity and Mechanics​

 

Topics Include:

​

       Sound

  • Vibration and tone

  • Pitch and frequency

  • Sound waves

​

      Mechanics​

  • Lever, pulley, inclined plane

  • Mechanical advantage

  • Work and force (qualitative)

​

       Electricity  (introductory)​

  • Simple circuits

  • Conductors and insulators

  • Series and parallel circuits

​

Block 2: Electromagnetism and Optics​

 

Topics Include:

​​

       Electromagnetism

  • Magnetism & the Flow of Electric Current

  • Detecting a voltage

  • Simple Telegraph

​

      Optics​

  • Mirror phenomena

  • Refraction and Magnification

  • The Telescope​

Geometry

In Grade 7, students experience geometry as the study of form, transformation, and inner lawfulness. Through careful constructions and artistic precision, they strengthen exact thinking while awakening an appreciation for order and beauty in mathematical relationships.

The work supports the growing capacity for structured, independent reasoning.

​Topics Include:

​

  • Review of precise geometric constructions

  • Properties and congruency of triangles

  • Similarity and proportional reasoning

  • The Pythagorean Theorem (geometric approach)

  • The Fibonacci sequence

  • Growth patterns in nature

  • Introduction to the Golden Ratio (qualitative)

  • Spirals and dynamic geometric forms

  • Transformations: rotation, reflection, translation

  • Introductory geometric reasoning

Astronomy

In Grade 7, students move from an Earth-centred view to the heliocentric understanding of the solar system. As their thinking becomes more independent and abstract, they explore the lawful movements of the planets and Earth’s place within a wider cosmic order.

​

Through the work of astronomers such as Galileo Galilei, Copernicus and Kepler, students encounter the courage and clarity required to shift humanity’s view of the universe and strengthens perspective, reasoning, and a sense of wonder for the cosmos.

​Topics Include:

​

  • Review of geocentric observations

  • Transition to heliocentric model

  • Work of Copernicus, Kepler, Galileo

  • Planetary orbits

  • Retrograde motion

  • Phases of Venus

  • Laws of planetary motion (qualitative)

  • Eclipses

  • Constellations and zodiac

  • Earth’s axial tilt and seasons​​​​

4 week Block

Fees: $ 300

Biology

In Grade 7, the child begins to experience a stronger inner life and a growing sense of individuality. The study of the human being meets this awakening consciousness by turning attention inward — toward the living systems that quietly sustain life.

​

Through the exploration of the threefold nature of the human being and the three body cavities, students encounter the digestive, circulatory, and respiratory systems not merely as mechanisms, but as dynamic processes working in harmony.

 

This study awakens wonder for the wisdom of the human body and fosters a deeper, more conscious relationship to health and balance.

​Topics Include:

​

  • The Threefold Human Being

  • The 3 body cavities: head, chest, abdomen

  • Digestive system and supporting organs 

  • Heart and Circulatory system

  • Lungs and Respiratory system

  • Relationship between the three systems

  • Nutrition and vitality

  • Common illnesses of the systems

  • Care and balance of the human organism

​​​​

5 week Block

Fees: $ 375

Chemistry

In Grade 7, chemistry meets the adolescent’s awakening awareness of change, polarity, and transformation. Rather than beginning with abstract formulas, students first encounter substances through observable processes — burning, dissolving, separating, crystallising, and recombining.

​

Through careful experimentation and disciplined observation, they witness how matter transforms according to lawful patterns.

 

This phenomenological approach strengthens clear thinking while cultivating respect and wonder for the dynamic processes active in the material world.

​Topics Include:

​

  • Combustion as transformation

  • Oxygen and burning

  • Acids and bases (qualitative study)

  • Indicators

  • Metals and non-metals

  • Oxidation

  • The Lime Cycle (limestone → quicklime → slaked lime → limestone)

  • Processes of dissolution and crystallisation
