Intro Science/English Enrichment Program

Time: 7 – 9 pm every Monday

Open to: Current Middle School Students (6th-8th Grade)

Course Description: This course introduces students to the fundamentals behind analytical writing and scientific analysis, skills crucial for their later success in high school! Please see below for detailed class descriptions.

 

Write to Success! (7-8pm)

  • “Write to Success!” teaches students how to compose an effective English analytical essay. Writing workshops will walk students through each step of the writing process, from constructing a thesis to writing a conclusion.

  • 1:1 feedback is a large aspect of instruction, and students will receive personalized suggestions on each week’s work. With the culmination of a final English paper based on a short fictional story, students will leave with a well-rounded writing background in preparation for high school courses.

Intro to the Scientific World (8-9pm)

  • In school, science may sometimes seem like a list of facts in a textbook, but it’s way more than just that! Science is everywhere around us; it's in living organisms, inanimate objects, natural disasters, bacteria and viruses, medicine and vaccines, and even the very formation of our earth and the universe.

  • In the "Intro to the Scientific World" course, students will not only be introduced to the basic principles of science, but more importantly, they will gain a new understanding of the scientific world through learning about fascinating phenomenons in biology, chemistry, and physics. By exploring the beauties of the scientific world, students will hopefully foster a newfound love and appreciation for science.

Note* This course is the same course that was taught at Camp Intellect's intro summer camps for the previous 2 years!
