What: The William J. Watkins Sr. Educational Institute in partnership with All This Math, LLC will be hosting an in-person Summer Program with virtual Saturday sessions throughout the following school year. The Program will develop participant's math skills (arithmetic, algebra, geometry, statistics and data analysis) - all skills tested on the MCAP exam, critical reading ability and politico-historical awareness. We will incorporate the study group model brought forth by the Association of Classical African Civilizations (ASCAC) as a way to provide community education through engaging relevant texts.
Each week of programming will focus on a different text and be accompanied by related math word problems. By the final week of the program, the students will be challenged to use their own critical thinking ability to create their own math word problems.
School year programming will take place on Saturdays from 9am - 12pm. This programming will begin September 7 and run on Saturdays throughout the school year with the exception of certain school holiday weekends.
Participants will receive a nominal stipend at the culmination of the Program.
