Prerequisite: "Understanding Science" Video
Students will receive an email no later than a week before the Workshop with information on this 90 minute video. Students who have not been in our Standard ACT Class or had tutoring with George Mizzell must work through it before class begins.
This course is best suited for students with math/science scores under 25-26. Students with a math score below this level need a stronger foundation working on some of the easier math problems. These are the problems that students are most likely to see on the test and they need to be proficient in these problems. Getting better at these means fewer mistakes and more time to work on the harder problems. Common mistakes like negative signs, basic formulas, arithmetic calculations, averages and order of operations are what we are trying to eliminate through practice!!! Students will work on problems and then Mr. Mizzell will review and explain most of the problems, not just showing how to work them but the hints that the ACT gives students in the way it states the problems/questions.
NOTE: There will be homework after every class and the students are expected to not only do their homework but review everything they miss and work on learning how to not make those mistakes again.
Session 1 - October 1, 2018, 4:15 to 6:15 PM (1 hour on each subject)
Math: Focus on Pre-Algebra/Elementary Algebra - Generally Math Test Problems 1-30. Typically these problems are the kind students worked on in the 8th or 9th grade and just need some refresher work.
Science: Focus on science passages and science concepts that appear more frequently - George will discuss the science behind the passage. All questions will be reviewed in detail.
Session 2 - October 8, 2018, 4:15 to 6:15 PM (1 hour on each subject)
Math: More focus on Algebra/Coordinate Geometry section of the test - Usually Math Test Problems 1-30. We want to really lay a good foundation on the easy math problems.
Science: Students will work through a wider variety of science passages and more focus will be on improving speed.
Session 3 - October 15, 2018, 4:15 to 6:15 PM (1 hour on each subject)
Math: Focus on Algebra II/Plane Geometry and elementary Trig section of the test - Usually Math Test Problems 31-45.
Science: Focus is expanding on the types of passages and primarily working on speed on the harder science passages.
Session 4 - October 22, 2018, 4:15 to 6:15 PM (1 hour on each subject)
Math: Focus on Plane Geometry/Trig section of the test - Usually, Math Problems 46-60, but will include some that are scattered in the 30-45 range. These are the harder problems and we will work through some of the more common types of hard problems.
Science: Focus is expanding on the types of passages and primarily working on speed on the harder science passages.
