Most students are either behind or struggling in Math throughout the country due to pandemic. If this is the case for your child, this is what you need. We have designed these classes to both develop confidence and build standards-based skills using unique strategies, particularly for our kinetic and visual learners. If you want your child to excel beyond grade level, we can support that work as well. We can offer both in person and virtual classes, depending upon your needs.

School Holidays at Ignite The Mind is a great way to keep your kids learning! We do educational enrichment all day in a structured, age-appropriate and fun way to help kids feel confident and excited about what they are learning. We offer creative projects in the arts, such as painting, drawing, ceramics and other crafts and games to improve thinking, timing and athletic skills. The day will be full of fun ways to get caught up in these skills and accelerate skills beyond current grade levels, as well as have some fun with the arts. There will also be time allotted to get all homework completed with the support of licensed teachers so that all students can have a worry-free weekend! Bring a water bottle, snack and lunch.

Chemistry is so challenging, but is truly the most interesting STEM topic once students understand and feel confident with it. Michelle will support these sessions, as she has taught IB Chemistry and has a Bachelor's degree in Biomedical Science from the College of Veterinary Medicine. These sessions will answer questions from your classes, help you with writing quality answers to questions as well as doing the math involved, which can be extensive. We will provide homework help to get that done early in the weekend so that you can have fun the rest of it. Challenging Chemistry concepts include stoichiometry, organics (nomenclature, physical and chemical properties, biological macromolecules), isomers, polymerization, redox and much more. You can get the support you need either in person or virtually, depending on your needs and location.

Michelle is providing this instruction. She has taught both IB Biology and IB Chemistry for many years in Denver, so she knows the content, the test, the strategies for taking the test and is more than highly qualified to instruct your child to do their best. Her Bachelor's degree is in Biomedical Science from the College of Veterinary Medicine, so she also knows the content in a meaningful and deep way.Passing the IB or AP Biology test can provide college credit, a financial savings of thousand of dollars, and a time savings of hundreds of hours. This class includes a pretest to determine baseline with specific strategies to maximize scores, and test-taking strategies that statistically work. We will focus on Biology concepts that are often challenging for students, including chemistry of macromolecules, cells and how they communicate, change and multiply, heredity, gene expression, evolution and ecology. We will offer in-person classes in Conifer, CO, and can be taken virtually based on your needs and location.Office Hours available after classes for students to get more individual attention.

This class is for any high school student who wants to learn chemistry and physics from a licensed secondary education teacher who knows all of the cool things these subjects offer, as well as how to teach them to make them really fun and engaging. We can even apply grades to the student's work to report on transcripts if that is requested. If you are signing up 2 or more children from the same household, please use code MK10 (multiple kids) for a 10% discount! If the cost of this class is a barrier, scholarship funds are available for low-income families. Please contact us for details. Students will choose a particular phenomenon of interest which covers a great deal of the requirements of the Colorado Academic Standards and the Next Generation Science Standards. High school Physical Science covers both Chemistry and Physics.
- Newton’s laws of motion and gravitation describe the relationships among forces acting on and between objects, their masses, and changes in their motion – but have limitations.
- Matter has definite structure that determines characteristic physical and chemical properties
- Matter can change form through chemical or nuclear reactions abiding by the laws of conservation of mass and energy
- Atoms bond in different ways to form molecules and compounds that have definite properties
- Energy exists in many forms such as mechanical, chemical, electrical, radiant, thermal, and nuclear, that can be quantified and experimentally determined
- When energy changes form, it is neither created not destroyed; however, because some is necessarily lost as heat, the amount of energy available to do work decreases
