📝 In this 4 week period, we will host a question writing contest where you will need to submit 1 or more questions with a written solution. These can be easy questions from AMC 8 to IMO, as well as science and technology competitions like USABO and USACO. 🚷Rules: - You must write at least 1 question with a correct solution. - You must be the creator of the question(s), if you are working in the team please make sure to write all team members on the PDF. - Submissions will be in PDF so feel free to scan a written document, download a google document, and more! - Have fun!!! 🧑‍⚖️Judging Criteria: Here are some questions our judges will be looking at! - Does this question have some unique topic or ask a intresting question? - Is the solution to the problem correct? Did the writer explain the solution well? - Was the problem appropriate and fun? - Does it have elements of a competition question? (ex. Problem Solving > Computation) - If the student is lacking in one of the above areas, do other problems have interesting ideas? Note: If you have more then 1 problem, then those problems are bonus, and will not be held against you, only for you.

New learners are always welcome!! In this series, there is one session every other single day for a whole year! How it works:  We go over the pronunciation, definition, synonyms and antonyms, origin, (and maybe some fun facts), and how to use the word in a sentence. There is always a super fun Kahoot about the word. Then we have idiom of the day where we introduce a new idiom, its meaning, and how it's used in a sentence.  Then, at the end, we have two quotes of the day! They may be inspirational, or funny, or both!  I hope to see you there! These sessions are perfect for expanding your vocabulary. Changes from the original series: - Sessions will be hosted every other day. - Learners who misbehave in any way that slightly defers the Schoolhouse policy will be removed. - Our original host will not be involved in this series.

Each week, we will write math questions and write math research, which will be uploaded to our website. It is expected to have at least algebra 2 knowledge. This is a place for having fun rather than seriously writing math-related things, so you are welcome to have fun here and enjoy math!

We will go over various practice questions (at least five per session) and then learn concepts from these questions. The first session will be a diagnostic test to see where learners are at; the final session will be a final exam to measure improvement.

This is help for Hanna G, we will be starting with Khan Academy. There are 4 tutors in this series that can take you 1 on 1 or have group practice sessions with you. This is a full on review for Algebra 1 based on the Khan Academy course and we have various fun activities planned! Feel free to sign up!

Welcome to the Talent Show! There are a series of stages where you can display your amazing talents, whether it's solving a Rubik's cube in record time or singing your heart out or guessing the day of the week on any date! There are some rules I want you to read before I go over how each stage goes. You must be comfortable coming on mic AND on camera. You CANNOT just drop out without warning. If you are going to be late (we should always wait 5 minutes just in case) please tell us so that we aren't wasting time. And the most important rule: Be a good sport and just have fun! Phew! With all of those rules out of the way, we can finally see how the heck this thing works. The first session will be kind of going a little more in depth on what I'm writing in this description AND wee will get into some planning for y'all's acts! Basically you decide what you want to do. I'll host this session twice for timezone differences along with the rest of the sessions. The next session will be the first round of acts! The judges and audience will vote on each act. Since I'm technically winging this next part, we will just decide on what to do in this session in the last session. And yes, I'll update the description when I have a more solid plan. Just join to watch or to participate in the fun! Yay, now you know how it works! Sorry for writing a book lol. Anyway, why are you still reading? Register to compete!

Here's the schedule: Week 1: Orientation & White Side Week 2: First 2 Layers Week 3: Last Layer (Pt. 1) Week 4: Last Layer (Pt. 2) Week 5: More Practice to Improve No prior knowledge is required, just come with a cube and ready to learn!

Each day we will go over 1) Introduction to variables 2) Substitution and evaluating expressions 3) Combining Like Terms 4) Introduction to equivalent expressions 5) Division By Zero More sessions to be added

Feel free to come to me with major questions or topic reviews. For example, if you require specific assistance in a certain area of Pre-Algebra, we can dedicate that entire session to that topic.

Each week we will analyze one small subject area in Pre-Algebra. It could be as small as basic arithmetic, and analyzing minor details or researching bigger topics in multi-week long studies.

Each week we will dedicate 1 hour to practicing violin!

Each week we will dedicate 1 hour to just practicing chess!

Each Week we will work through an entire course challenge.

Each Week we will try to build a strong foundation.

Each week we will work through one topic in the Pre-Algebra Khan Academy Course. We will have optional homework, free practice sheets, and opportunities to prepare for your future Algebra class.

Once a month, we will get together to talk about a book that we all read. This series isn't necessarily going to be talking about the satire or the antagonist's motivations. We are just here to have fun, talk about our favorite parts, maybe some parts you didn't like, anything you want! At the end of each session, we will vote on the book we all want to read for the next month's session.
