US Grade 8
This class teaches a full year’s curriculum of math, reading, writing, grammar, and spelling for 8th Grade. Math and English topics will rotate throughout the year for review and practice. The class will cover fundamental concepts for 8th grade. Each week, we have a spelling list and have lessons in English and Math. There will be homework for extra math, english, and spelling practice each week. Teachers are available to answer any questions and will give feedback on the homework. Our lessons are always engaging because education is more than just academics, it is also about the social interactions you have while learning. Our classes include interactive discussions and we use games and other hands-on activities to engage every child in their learning. All of our classes are taught in a 100% inclusive and child-led environment. Our teachers are always inclusive of every child and adapt their teaching style to keep high levels of engagement and progression.
