Tool Kit for Creating Adventure

 

 It’s time for some adventure! If you’re a strong 6th or a 7th grader, Tool Kit 2 gives you some great skills that you can use to create adventure. In the morning, the focus is on communication. Do you ever wish you’d said something in a different way? Sometimes, finding the right words and communication strategy is like trying to get the black pickup stick out of the pile. Learn the right words and the best way to use them to make your point. You’ll use these tools for the rest of your life! In the afternoon, you’ll be like the best of the explorers – a scientist on the MathQuest. Did you ever wish you could take a trip on a hot air balloon? This class won’t get you up in the air, but it will help you sail through the Cartesian plane and learn all about functions, fractions and decimals. You’ll see how mathematics relates to real life, and you’ll master new topics as the MathQuest hot air balloon sails through the award-winning materials of the course.
