Be ready soar in this math and language arts enrichment class. 
During each class, I will present a topic needed to be a great reader. We will then read short passages and practice using that technique. A variety of sources will be used to practice reading comprehension & nonfictional alignment including informational texts, workplace and community-based documents, general fiction, opinion based texts, and non-fiction aligned with science and social studies curriculums for this age group. Students will be assessed on their comprehension of the reading passages, math skills, and by answering questions about the main idea, making inferences, the author’s purpose, summary, mood, characterization, character’s point of view, sequence of events, theme, and supporting details, and  solid understand of these concepts will also greatly improve one's writing. For math, concepts will be using scaffolding,  breaking down complex concepts into smaller, manageable steps and providing temporary support structures to help students learn and solve problems, gradually gain competence.
