Smart Minds Summer Academy 2012 -
Students Entering 4th and 5th Grades

Mathematics:
What!? Algebra for 4th and 5th Graders?

If you have a child who has a mathematical mind and enjoys math, he/she will love this course because it will transcend math curriculum by using the daily world situations as its stage.

Students will learn and enjoy how to use algebra as a language to solve everyday problems. In addition to covering concepts of integers, expressions, linear equation, and inequalities, they will learn about radicals, squaring, and many more algebra concepts.

If you think algebra is dull and difficult, come to this class - And Think Again!

Physics, Chemistry, and Biology:
Fascinating World of Science

Each week, the students will be engaged in exploring a different unit in physics, chemistry, and biology. In physics, after examining laws of motion, they will make predictions on pendulum movements and balloon races using scientific methods.

During chemistry unit, our young scientists study chemical structures and bonds and will experiment breaking the bonds of polystyrene.

In biology, the students will investigate the anatomy of earthworms and discuss the habits and body systems of various creatures.

Archaeology:
Ancient Civilizations

Do you enjoy learning about ancient civilizations? Have you ever wanted to design your own civilization along with cool artifacts? If you said yes to these questions, you must be a part of our archaeology team in this class.
