Learning Resources: Ninth Grade

2020 Learning Suggestions
Eighth Grade going into Ninth Grade

Welcome to ninth grade! The intention of these resources is to integrate school learning into home life. Below you’ll find suggestions that include playful activities that also reinforce academic skills, in a relaxed family environment. This year, given the COVID situation, we have added more online opportunities for learning over the summer. We’ve also included online resources and quick links to specialist google slide lessons for art, music, and Spanish, in case your student would like to access these resources.

Suggestions

  • Read, read, read!

    Your required summer reading and books of your own choice.

  • Find & Share Books

    Go on family trips to bookstores and libraries (online or in person if open); talk about books; share your favorite books.

  • Math Review!

    Khan academy for math review (Algebra I concepts).

  • Grammar Review

    Go into Quill for grammar review.

  • Create your space

    Create a space in your house to work on home-school connections (your study spot! – this can be fun!).

  • Be in Nature

    Be in nature as much as possible as a means to develop your sensitivity and awareness of the world around you.

  • Schedule Downtime

    Schedule lots of “needs-nothing” time, with open space and no agenda. The summer is a time to connect as a family in a relaxed environment, enjoying being together!
