Think Math
Grades K-5
Would you like for your child to have extra time learning math in a way that is challenging and fun? Or do you want to take the fear out of math for them? In Think Math, children work with Georgetown, GWU, and American University undergrads who make learning fun and are great role models. We place children into small groups based on what they know and what they need to learn next, which makes our program good both for children who seek to explore new or challenging topics, and for children who need to strengthen their knowledge of math fundamentals. Our program builds confidence, and develops conceptual learning and critical thinking skills. Children normally work in groups of 3-8 children per instructor and use an international math curriculum. For more information, go to www.think-math.com
Note: Parents and students must attend an Orientation Session on September 25th from 6-7:30 PM. Parents will receive their individual instructors contact information before the start of class.

In this class students will utilize Platinum Arts Sandbox to develop 2D linear based levels similar to classic Mario & Sonic Games. Children will utilize problem solving skills, simple mathematics and team feedback to create a challenging but rewarding game. Students will first draw and map out their levels similar to an architect, then sculpt their environment using 3D modeling tools within the software. As children continue building and texturizing their map students will learn to learn to input properties to customize items, such as jumppads, teleports, enemies and more.
