This summer program is designed for students entering 7th grade or for students looking to strengthen their math foundation and gain confidence before the school year begins. The course helps students develop strong mathematical thinking skills while introducing and reinforcing key concepts aligned with Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) standards. This program is also beneficial for students preparing for a Credit by Examination (CBE) or placement testing to advance beyond 7th grade math. The course strengthens key TEKS concepts and problem-solving skills that can support students pursuing acceleration opportunities.
The curriculum focuses on strengthening foundational middle school math skills while introducing more advanced concepts and helping students develop deeper analytical and problem-solving abilities. Students will build connections between arithmetic, algebraic reasoning, and real-world applications.
We will focus on:
Rational Number Representations and Operations
Proportional Reasoning
Probability
Equations and Inequalities
Geometry and Measurement
Data Analysis
Personal Financial Literacy
Building strong problem-solving and analytical skills
Developing confidence and mathematical independence
Applying math concepts to real-world situations
Reinforcing core TEKS concepts to support CBE and acceleration goals
