US Grade 3 - 5
Beginner - Advanced Level
In this dynamic and engaging summer camp, students in grades 3 to 5 will embark on an exciting journey to build their vocabulary while strengthening their reading, writing, and critical thinking skills. By learning new words and understanding their meanings, students will not only become more confident readers and writers, but also improve their ability to think critically and make connections between different ideas. This class is designed to be interactive and fun, offering a variety of activities that challenge students to apply their vocabulary knowledge in creative ways, deepen their understanding of texts, and express themselves with clarity and confidence. The first half of the class will be dedicated to learning Latin and Greek prefixes used in English words which will help students boost their future SAT scores. We will also use the Wordly Wise curriculum for half of the class. Each student will need to purchase their own "Wordly Wise" book for their grade level. The teacher will choose lessons from the books to present for the second half of the class. Please refer to the "Learners Supplies" section for more information.
