Beat the summer slide and give your rising 8th-grader a running start into the school year with Bridging the Gap math classes this summer. In this class, students will review the most important building block skills from 7th grade and get a sneak preview of the new skills they’ll encounter toward the beginning of 8th grade this fall. Bridging the Gap to 8th Grade Math will emphasize expressions and equations, statistics and probability, and geometry principles, preparing students to deepen and apply those skills to working with functions, graphing and interpreting graphs of algebraic relationships, analyzing data sets, and solving equations in the coming school year.
