That is a rhetorical choice, not an accident.Passive is right in science writing — the method matters more thanwho performed it.Active and Passive Voicelittleactivity.com

Together they cover proportions, equations, circles, probability, rhetorical appeals — the reference knowledge 7th Grade keeps asking a child to recall.

Are the 7th Grade posters free?

Yes. Every poster on this page can be previewed in full and downloaded as a print-ready PDF for free. The $7.99 option simply bundles all 50 into one PDF so you print once rather than downloading them one at a time.

How should I use a poster once it is printed?

Hang it where the work happens, then refer to it out loud. A poster that gets pointed at during homework teaches; a poster nobody mentions is wallpaper. Each poster on this page carries a one-line suggestion for exactly that.

Is my child too old or too young for the 7th Grade set?

Mix freely. These are individual reference sheets, not a sequence — a child who is ahead in reading and behind in maths can take the poster they need from either grade without any awkwardness.
