Florida Grade 7 Standards & HoffyEd Activities
Every current Florida Grade 7 academic standard — B.E.S.T. Mathematics (MA.7), B.E.S.T. ELA (ELA.7), Science (SC.7), and Social Studies (SS.7) — matched against the activities live on learn.hoffyed.com.
Standards are listed at the standard level (e.g. MA.7.NSO.1) with the benchmark range noted underneath, so every standard appears here even where HoffyEd doesn't yet have a matching activity.
Dashed chips mark a partial match — the activity touches the standard but doesn't cover it end to end. Only individual lesson pages are linked; subject and sub-topic hub pages are left out since they don't carry content of their own.

Science — SC.7
All 7 Grade 7 standards across Nature of Science (N), Earth & Space Science (E), Physical Science (P), and Life Science (L). Grade 7 is Florida's Life Science-heavy middle school year — heredity, evolution, and ecology.
| Standard | What it covers | HoffyEd activities |

| SC.7.P.10 | Forms of Energy.Recognizing that light waves, sound waves, and other waves move at different speeds through different materials. | |
| SC.7.P.11 | Energy Transfer and Transformations.How adding or removing heat can cause a temperature change or change of state, that energy transforms from one form to another without being created or destroyed, and the ways heat moves. | |
| SC.7.L.15 | Diversity and Evolution of Living Organisms.Recognizing that fossil evidence is consistent with the theory of evolution, and how genetic variation and environmental factors contribute to natural selection. | No HoffyEd activity yet |
| SC.7.L.16 | Heredity and Reproduction.DNA and genes as hereditary instructions, Punnett squares and pedigrees, comparing sexual reproduction (meiosis) to asexual reproduction (mitosis), and the impact of biotechnology. | No HoffyEd activity yet |
