.........................................GENERAL & MISCELLANEOUS Speech and Debate Program Grades 3-6 Wayzata Speech and Debate Program is a perfect introduction to the rewards and exhilaration of communication for our elementary students. The objective of this program is to introduce and begin to hone students’ ability in the important leadership skill of public speaking. Students will employ different tools in their speech presentations.

The students will enjoy putting down on paper their issues and positions appropriate to their age, and then use the various tools of public speaking like voice quality, tone, volume, articulation, pronunciation, eye contact, and body gestures to make an effective presentation. They will learn how to use different methods to move through their speech. The main skills we expect to use are memorization, full speech manuscripts, and outline. As our students practice these skills in their speeches, they will overcome nervousness when they speak, demonstrate confidence and feel more comfortable talking in front of an audience of any size. This program for beginners is an excellent jumpstart for those considering speech and debate in their higher grades. Even students that come to the program reluctantly leave excited and inspired by the progress they have made during the course. Styles of speech covered: Storytelling: Students perform a 5-minute memorized children’s story. Impromptu: Students are given simple topics and after 2-minute prep, speak extemporaneously on their topic. Expository Speech: Students write and deliver an informative or how-to speech – 5-minute memorized event. Policy Debate: This is an extremely complex form of debate in high school and college. It involves in-depth research and analysis of foreign and domestic policy, as well as philosophical concepts. Students in this workshop will gain a preview of what to expect in high school debate. This class is for beginners and no prior experience needed. Material fee included. $129 for 5 classes; Center for Academic Excellence

Young Writers Program Grades 3-6 Communication is a skill your child will use for life. Your child will be able to use the techniques learned in the Young Writers program for writing essays to analyzing literary works. What’s the point of having a million brilliant ideas if you can’t communicate them effectively? This course will delve into five critical branches of writing: storytelling, narrative essays, expository essays, poetry, and journalism.

Students will learn how to express their ideas clearly and thoughtfully, and analyze how famous writers like Ray Bradbury and O’Henry use literary devices to illustrate thematic statements. They will be able to use creative writing and thinking to tell their own stories as well. The writing artists teach your young writer to fall in love with the writing process and help develop the discipline required for writing. Individual needs of the student will be identified and our instructors will work closely with them in small groups to overcome their individual challenges. $129 for 5 classes; Center for Academic Excellence

Students see math applied to real-world situations and will learn to tackle different challenges. Students build, test and revise LEGO Mindstorm (EV3) robots. They will explore the facets of robotics, including motors, touchsensors, ultrasonic sensors, sound sensors and light sensors. They’ll work together to build, test, and revise just like in a real engineering process, until they’re successful. They will be taught programming concepts through activities. They will learn how to code, create, and run programs using child friendly programing tools including MIT’s graphical programming language and projects from code.org*. Students will engage in various hands-on science experiments and improve their knowledge through quizzes and interactive Science Bowl formatted friendly competitions. *No prior programming skills are required to learn coding.

SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING & MATH ............ mathWiZ - Elementary Grades 3-5 Catching students young and nurturing their curiosity helps in their academic excellence. The mathWiz program trains the young minds to translate words into math and helps develop problem-solving skills. During the sessions, students will explore patterns in a systematic, engaging and fun way and apply concepts to build a strong math foundation. Concepts are explored visually, verbally and symbolically enabling math students to be active learners.

Problems discussed in the class are non-routine problem-solving questions that are adapted to math competitions like Math Masters and CML. The mathWiz F1* topics include Multiplication and Divisibility, Prime Numbers, Greatest Common Factor, Least Common Multiples, Parity of Numbers, Ratios Rates and Proportions, and other problem solving strategies in the areas of Number Theory and Pre-Algebra. Each new concept is reinforced with a series of problems of added complexity. Our unique program builds a strong foundation for accelerated math for middle school and beyond, enables a great advantage in the standardized tests aiding students to achieve highest possible percentile, provides challenge beyond regular school curriculum, helps excel in math competitions, and enables students to progress at their own pace. * mathWiz sessions are scheduled throughout the school year and each session is independent in its content. Students are recommended to enroll in at least 3 sessions during the school year to see measurable progress. $129 for 6 classes; Center for Academic Excellence #MATHWIZ-F1-14 Tuesdays, Sep 16 - Oct 21 5:00 - 6:15 pm Central Middle School B110, Studio C & Media Center

mathWiz N1-Middle School As a parent, it is not your job to know the answers to your child’s math questions. With a nudge in the right direction, your child will be able to tackle the tough homework problem on his own. At these mathWiz Enrichment classes, we’ll provide the strategies that your child needs to come up with the solutions/ explanations on their own - either for their homework problems or a new concept that was introduced in the class. During the sessions, students are provided with topic based instructions from accelerated Math 1x and are supplemented with daily drills to reinforce the concepts. Through this, students will excel in their fall standardized tests. The program also prepares students for competitive math like Math Masters, Junior High Math League, MathCounts and AMC 8. The mathWiz N1* session topics include Patterns of Change – a relationship approach to Algebra, Patterns in Data – key ideas of data analysis, and Linear Functions. * mathWiz sessions are scheduled throughout the school year and each session is independent in its content. Students are recommended to enroll in at least 3 sessions during the school year to see measurable progress. $139 for 6 classes; Center for Academic Excellence #MATHWIZ-FN1-14 Tuesdays, Sep 16 - Oct 21 6:30 - 7:45 pm Central Middle School B110, Studio C & Media Center
