About This Activity
Incoming seventh and eighth grade students spend part of each morning on life skills development (e.g., social emotional learning, cyber wellness, active learning, time management) that will prepare them socially and emotionally so they will be ready for high school. They spend the bulk part of their morning on refining and enriching their language arts and math academic skills. Students will hone their Language Arts skills through vocabulary, novel study, grammar practice, and paragraph/essay composition. Advanced Pre-Algebra or Algebra 1 concepts will be covered with a diverse mix of word problems, properties, and written expressions. Program level will be determined based on previous student experience. Springboard to High School is a combo program that focuses on educating the head as well as the heart.
