Pre-Algebra Readiness Camp

This camp is designed to help students prepare for middle school math (pre-algebra and algebra).  The class will review all basic computation (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division) and then will review and teach operations with fractions, operations with decimals, proportions, percents, and operations with integers.  That class will focus on mastery, speed, and accuracy and will also work with word problems that range from basic word problems to more difficult ISEE and SAT-type word problems. The class will be fast-paced and include competitions between students, speed and accuracy tests, and other games to push kids to master their math skills quickly and efficiently.  This weeklong camp will help students recall (and learn) all of the basic math skills necessary to succeed in middle school.  The class also covers all of the basic math skills necessary for ISEE prep for the lower and middle levels.

Time: 9:00 am–3:00 pm, M-F July 19-July 23
Grades: 5^th - 9^th  
Class size: 6-10 students
Fee: $350 (scholarships available)

 
Algebra Camp

This camp will teach students the material covered in the first semester of Algebra I.  The camp is designed for students who want to get a head start on 8^th grade algebra, want to review basic algebra, or want to prepare for the upper level ISEE.  The camp will mostly cover concepts in linear algebra: expressions and equations, one-step and multi-step equations, simple and compound inequalities, graphing equations and inequalities, solving and graphing absolute value equations and inequalities, linear systems, and systems of linear inequalities.  The class will also cover basic algebra word problems (especially: setting up equations, mixtures, rates, etc.).  This week-long algebra intensive will provide students with a solid background in basic linear algebra which will give them a step up in Algebra I, help review for Algebra II, cover most of the basic algebra problems on the PSAT and SAT, and cover almost all of the algebra in the upper level ISEE.   

Time: 9:00 am–3:00 pm, M-F August 2-August 6
Grades: 6^th - 9^th
Class size: 6-10 students
Fee: $350 (scholarships available)

 
Advanced Algebra Camp

This camp will teach students the material covered in the second semester of Algebra I.  The camp is open to 6^th to 9^th graders, we recommend that students be familiar with linear algebra before they attend.  On the first day of class, we will briefly cover the topics from the “Algebra Camp” but the bulk of the class will focus on more difficult algebra.  The class will cover: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division with polynomials, factoring, various methods for solving quadratic equations (factoring, completing the square, using the quadratic equations), and a wide range of algebraic word problems (mixtures, distance, percents, gravity). The class is designed to cover most of the material in the second semester of Algebra I and the material overlaps with most of the material covered in the first semester of Algebra II.  This camp is ideal for any student who wants to review Algebra I, prepare for Algebra II, or review algebra for SAT.  The small class will allow the instructor to teach to the class and work with students individually. We recommend that students take both algebra camps unless they are very familiar with the first semester of Algebra I – the first few weeks of Algebra II will review the material from the first semester of Algebra I (Algebra Camp).

Time: 9:00 am–3:00 pm, M-F August 9-August 13
Grades: 6^th - 9^th
