Language Skills Workshop 6th, 7th and 8th Grade Dates: August 10th-11th Times: 9:00am-12:00pm
This summer course will introduce new students to the grammar concepts such as the parts of speech and the skill of diagramming and MLA writing requirements expected of students at The Benjamin School. In addition, the class will reference the summer reading through the grammar exercises, so students will need to be familiar with the assigned text. Students will work individually, with partners, in small groups, and with direct teacher instruction. For returning students, this course offers a review of the grammatical concepts taught the previous year and a preview of the grammar topics for the upcoming year.Middle Summer Math Program
