Some teachers hate 7th grade students. They claim that 7th graders are awkward, annoying, and hormonal. That may be true. Nonetheless, I've always loved my 7th grade classes more than any of my other groups. (Don't tell my 8th graders.) I love my 7th grade students because they are helpful, malleable, and are still eager to please their teachers (for the most part). You can reason with them. They can be hilarious. And they know that they're going to see you around next year, so they're not going to do anything too crazy. This page has all of my reading worksheets that were written at or around the 7th grade level. I used this awesome website to determine the readability scores of each of these worksheets, but you'll want to read and approve them yourself before giving them to your students. If you teach students who are reading at or around the 7th grade level, you've come to the right place. Surely you can find something on this page to enrich your students' literacy skills.

Those 7th graders are a handful, but if you keep giving them work like this, you'll keep them busy while they learn. Everybody wins. Students love completing work that they know how to do. If you teach them these concepts, and then give them practice that is written at their reading level, they'll be chugging through these assignments. I can't wait to hear about your success using the activities on this page. If you have any to share, post them in the comments below. I also accept corrections, suggestions, and critiques.

Hi Mr. Morton, in your Year 7 Tone worksheet 5, the poem ‘To a child dancing upon the shore,’ The answer for question 7 (What is this poem about?) says that the poem is about how the speaker enjoys riding to town on days when there is not a lot of work to do.
