This summer program is designed to prepare incoming 7th and 8th grade students for the upcoming school year. Hence, all lessons and learning activities enhance each individual student as a successful scholar.In English, we not only read and write, but we analyze the current learning structures in our school system so that each student carries the necessary academic survival tools and skills needed throughout their academic experiences.In History, we focus on three principles: 1) one's perspective of an event, society, belief, etc., 2) the need to research the "whole story" of an event, and 3) the art and science of thinking for oneself. How this endeavor is accomplished:1. We explore the upcoming textbook to analyze it's structure and outlined information. And, we learn a standard format to use when analyzing a news article.2. We research our own historical facts and events.3. We create Kingdoms. This process gives the students a real-life perspective of how societies have been formed, protected, and enriched or lost.
