Foundational Skills; Refresher and Reinforcement

In this month-long class, we will work on building foundational skills in Language Arts and Math. This class will be held for one hour, twice a week. We will focus on core concepts from each subject that are essential. By learning and reinforcing these skills the learner will build their confidence in the subjects of Language Arts and Math. This is a great opportunity to strengthen skills in a low-pressure setting. This is also a less intimidating way to start the school year off by refreshing and reenforcing concepts after winter break. 

ELA- Language Arts will cover reinforcement lessons to include vocabulary, writing tools for complete sentences and paragraphs, parts of speech, punctuation, and reading. There will be weekly writing prompts and vocabulary provided.
