Athena Learning Center Summer Camp - Comprehending Non-Fiction Text in Science and Social Studies

One of the most important skills students learn as they transition into middle and high school is how to get information from a non-fiction text. This skill can be especially challenging some students who may not have had much experience working independently with expository texts. In this program we will help develop the specific skills necessary for students to learn from non-fiction text. Engaging in group discussion and working with historical documents, biographies and true stories, this class will prepare students for success in middle and high school now that the Common Core standards have required non-fiction to be an integral part of your child’s curriculum.
