Entering Grades 6-9
Keep young minds active with the locally developed Math-By-Mail curriculum; math practice accompanied by enrichment activities for the upcoming summer months. This program was created by current middle school math teachers with 40 years of combined experience. Minnesota State Standards, Math Frameworks MCA strands, and current Minnesota Benchmarks are the foundational basis for this curriculum. With creative problem-solving, multiple choice, short answer and vocabulary embedded into an eight-week course of independent study, students will maintain or increase the level of their math understanding in addition to reviewing the recommended targets suggested by grade level in the Minnesota School Academic Standards of Mathematics.
Each student will be given a pre-test to assess the appropriate skill level necessary to strengthen their individual math needs, unlike other programs that are exclusively grade level driven. Students will receive eight packets to complete at their own pace throughout the summer. As students finish packets, they are mailed back for feedback and then returned to the students.
All packets are due back by August 12 in order to provide timely feedback before the 2022 school year begins. Please register for this summer program by June 30.
Note that there is no location or exact time for this program. The date and time listed online merely reflects the last date a student can enroll in the Math-by-Mail program.
