This class will focus on working on the math fundamentals needed to confidently move into a pre-algebra problem. Hands-on activities help to solidify concepts, making them readable and understandable to students so these principles can be applied in higher levels of math. We will also learn logical thinking using games and activities. This allows students to better problem solve and rationally think through the problems. Concepts covered will be: •Decimals •Number Theory and Fractions •Collecting and Displaying Data •Plane Geometry •Ratio, Proportion & Percentages •Integers •Perimeter, Area & Volume •Functions & Coordinate Geometry.

In this class, we teach the fundamentals of sewing, giving kids new skills and the sense of accomplishment that comes with saying "I made this!" We start with basic techniques like hand-stitching and replacing buttons, before moving on to using a sewing machine to make actual wearable items. In the process, students develop their project planning, problem-solving, and spatial skills. Over the course, students will make a number of projects, including hair scrunchies, throw pillows, sleep shorts, totes, and aprons.
