June 21 to July 30 (6 weeks), virtual

Meets Monday through Friday

The topics of this course include parallel lines, congruent triangles, quadrilaterals, similar triangles, right triangles, circles, areas and volume. Geometer’s Sketchpad, a mathematics software, will be used to enhance understanding of geometric relationships. This course will be primarily self-directed, with instructional materials posted each week, nightly homework, and weekly assessments. Optional live office hours and individual meetings will be available to students to support their learning. This course is equivalent to a full-year of Geometry so it moves at an accelerated pace, covering 2-3 chapters per week. Students should expect to spend a minimum of 4 hours each day (Monday through Friday) on this class.

Sessions 3 & 4

This course is for incoming 5th graders. Topics include whole number computational review, problem solving, understanding basic decimals and fractions, math facts fluency, mental math skills, and fun math games.

Throughout the month of July

The Center for the Advancement of Girls presents a virtual book for empowered girl leaders! Together we’ll read some incredible stories about girls who use their voice in all kinds of ways and are unafraid to be themselves. We’ll also complete activities designed to enhance our thinking about the characters we meet, the challenges they face, and meet once a week to talk about what we learned about ourselves along the way. Join us this summer as we explore how we can embrace our identity just like the amazing girls and women we read about.
