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. -

Our little kids' discovery camps are generally for ages 3 to 6 years old and are all STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and math) based. The morning sessions are more about the arts and the afternoon sessions are about the science, math, technology and engineering. Each day, students will go home with something that they created, such as a drawing, a piece of pottery, jewelry, model of a rocket, the building they made, the plants they transplanted and so much more. Here, you can choose either a morning option (8-12), an afternoon option (1-5) or a full day option (8-5). If you need to drop off earlier or pick up later, please just let us know. -
Jewelry Making: We will choose two kinds of jewelry to make, based on student choice (metal/wire, bead, macrame, leather, natural fibers, stone, glass, clay). Students will design their own creation and learn techniques for making their design). By the end of the week, students will have either something to wear or something to gift of their own creation. -

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
We do have some grant money available for low-income families to use to supplement up to 80% of their tutoring costs, pending availability and proof of need.

This class is for any high school student who wants to learn Earth Science (geology, astronomy, natural hazards) 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. 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 Earth science covers the processes and interactions of Earth's systems and the structure and dynamics of Earth and other objects in space. This includes:- The history of the universe, solar system and Earth. As part of the solar system, Earth interacts with various extraterrestrial forces and energies such as gravity, solar phenomena, electromagnetic radiation, and impact events that influence the planet’s geosphere, atmosphere, and biosphere in a variety of ways.
- The theory of plate tectonics helps to explain geological, physical, and geographical features of Earth.
- Climate is the result of energy transfer among interactions of the atmosphere, hydrosphere, geosphere, and biosphere.
- There are costs, benefits, and consequences of exploration, development, and consumption of renewable and nonrenewable resources.
- The interaction of Earth's surface with water, air, gravity, and biological activity causes physical and chemical changes
- Natural hazards have local, national and global impacts such as volcanoes, earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, and thunderstorms.

This class is for any middle school student who wants to learn physics, life or Earth sciences 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. For the middle school standards, we'll choose one topic from each of the three sciences, or pick one of these sciences and dive deeply into its specifics. We will use or develop a phenomenon-based study using student questions to drive our investigations. Physical Science: Matter, atoms, density, waves (sound, electromagnetic, seismic) Life Science: Environments, habitats, populations, survival, ecosystems, human activities which are impacting these ecosystems, genes and traits Earth Systems Science: Volcanoes, weather, solar system, seasons, Moon phases
