Summer Online Learning Experience

In what seems like another life now, I tutored 3rd and 5th graders in math.  Math always came pretty easy to me, which I credit to my father who would make us do complicated math problems in our heads while on family road trips.   Fun, right??  What I loved about tutoring was the moment when I would see that the children finally got it—that Aha moment was priceless.

My cousin sent me this information saying:

If you, or anyone you know, might be interested in the Summer Online Learning Experience (SOLE), please take a look at this flyer and pass it on to someone who might be in need. As a former high school teacher, I know that parents and students were looking for tutoring programs at the end of the year. SOLE Math is inexpensive and easy to use.

I hope this information is helpful to you or someone you know! image Is your child having problems with math?
Are word problems a cause for panic in your house?
Could additional practice on math problems help your child?
Does your child LOVE math and crave a greater challenge?


If you answered ‘yes’ to any of these questions, then the
Summer Online Learning Experience (SOLE) MATH may be
just the type of summer experience your child needs.


SOLE MATH links students with ALEKS, an intelligent
tutoring system (ITS). First, ALEKS assesses each student’s
knowledge and skill level, then provides them with an
interactive, individualized, and self-paced tutoring
experience.


Who is eligible to participate in SOLE MATH?
Any 3rd through 12th grade student who would like to review old or learn new mathematics skills
during the summer


How much does it cost to participate?
SOLE MATH is $25 for three months. You only need access to a computer with the Internet.
Dr. SOLE says, “If your child comes to love Math, then your child can join SOLE MATH for
FREE!”*
*If your child completes 30 on-task hours with the ALEKS system this summer, he/she can join SOLE MATH for FREE next summer.


What does SOLE MATH offer?
ALEKS offers individualized tutoring on a wide range of topics required for 3rd through 12th
graders, including topics required for most state standardized exams. In addition, there are
advanced mathematical concepts and topics for advanced courses, for example Advanced
Placement (AP) Statistics are covered.


How do I register my child for SOLE MATH?
Registration begins May 1st. SOLE MATH registration will take place May 1st through May 31st.
Late fees apply after May 31st. However, seating is limited, so please register soon.
