About This Activity
Prospect Sierra is thrilled to announce its first-ever Youcubed Mindset Math Summer Program, led by our passionate 5th and 6th grade math teachers, Marlene Costa and Sumiko Wong! Designed for rising 5th–7th graders, this camp is the perfect opportunity for your child to discover the joy of math, build confidence, and develop a growth mindset that will last a lifetime. This is a special summer offering because instructors will be using Stanford University’s Youcubed Curriculum: A research-backed program that transforms how students see and engage with math. In these 10 days, campers will accomplish the following milestones. Build Confidence: Help your child overcome math anxiety and see themselves as a "math person." Growth Mindset Focus: Learn to embrace challenges, celebrate mistakes, and grow through problem-solving. Collaborative Learning: A supportive, inclusive environment where students work together to explore math concepts. Solid Foundations: Strengthen number sense, increase understanding of fractions and integers, and prepare for future math success. This camp is designed for all levels of math learners—whether your child loves math and struggles with confidence, or just needs a boost to feel more comfortable with numbers. Everyone is welcome!
