Engaging hands-on Engineering projects, and activities like quizzes, math puzzles, and Interactive Science Bowl formatted competitions, create an enriching opportunity for the students. The sessions keep your child’s math skills sharp during the summer break through daily practice drills. Using design and pattern association techniques, puzzles and games, students are taught to apply concepts. They will also learn how to code, create, and run programs using up-to-date child friendly programing tools including MIT’s graphical programming language and projects from code.org*.

The two Greenberg groups clash until a new kid comes to school. “The Kid”, sees the value in both the beauty and the beat and tries to bring both groups together.

Summer Math by Mail Grades K-1 Math by Mail

Grades 2-5 Math by Mail

K-One Summer Math by Mail has been developed to review and enrich math concepts for students just completing kindergarten or students just completing first grade. Summer Math By Mail is not a tutoring program and it is not designed to advance students ahead. It offers practice of previously learned concepts to keep skills sharp and build confidence. Students will receive a pre-test and fill out a questionnaire to individualize their program, then participants receive ten weeks of lessons.

After students have completed a week’s worth of work, they mail it in. We then make corrections, provide comments and mail it back. Students work at their own pace. Kids love receiving their returned assignments each week in the mail! When all lessons are completed, students will receive a certificate of achievement. Pre-tests and course materials will be sent out beginning mid-June. $79; Jill Yeager

This 10-week correspondence program was developed by a veteran teacher over 15 years ago. Materials that students will cover during the summer review support concepts they have encountered during their previous school year. Students will take a pre-test and fill out a questionnaire to individualize their program. Students will then receive nine weeks of materials. Each week’s packet will include five math lessons with problemsolving activities. The activities will apply to a specific math concept or strand. After the student has completed a packet, they will mail it in. We’ll make corrections, provide feedback and mail it back. Students may start and finish the course at their own pace throughout the strands. When all lessons are completed, students will receive a certificate of achievement and restaurant meal coupon.

Minnesota State Standards, Math Frameworks MCA strands, and current Minnesota Benchmarks are the foundational basis for this curriculum.

Each student will receive a pre-test in mid-June to assess the appropriate skill level necessary to strengthen their individual math needs, unlike other programs that are exclusively grade level driven. Students will receive 8 packets to complete at their own pace throughout the summer. As students finish packets, they are mailed back for feedback and then returned to the students. All packets are due back by August 14 in order to provide timely feedback before the 2014 school year begins.

MN Science Technology Engineering and Math (STEM) Program Grades 2-5 and 6-8 Center for Academic Excellence (CAE) is offering the MN Science Technology Engineering and Math (STEM) Program as a summer academic enrichment opportunity. This educational program is for elementary and middle school students who want to excel in Math and Science.

In this program, CAE combine lectures, projects and experiments to support learning, improve student’s math and science skills, and better the chances for success in numerous fields and also meet the demands of our future work force. We bring hours of fun projects and experiments to captivate children’s interest. As each Jr. Engineer/Scientist grabs their lab coat on the way in, the STEM adventure begins, allowing them to discover and engage in their learning. They dissect, explore, build and explode. Engaging hands-on Engineering projects, and activities like quizzes, math puzzles, and Interactive Science Bowl formatted competitions, create an enriching opportunity for the students. The sessions keep your child’s math skills sharp during the summer break through daily practice drills. Using design and pattern association techniques, puzzles and games, students are taught to apply concepts. They will also learn how to code, create, and run programs using up-to-date child friendly programing tools including MIT’s graphical programming language and projects from code.org*. This program gives students a leg-up in their problem solving skills which are essential for their MAP/standardized tests. We are sure, after the program, students will return home transformed and energized to learn more Science, Engineering, Computer Science and Math. We invite your child to take advantage of this one of a kind summer learning experience. *No previous programming skills are required to learn the nuances of computer sciences. Students are recommended to bring their own iPads/Laptops. Material fee included. $99 for 4 classes; Center for Academic Excellence Grades 2-5 #STEM-SE3-14 Mon Jun 16 - Thu Jun 19 12:30 - 3:00 pm Kimberly Lane Elementary - C18
