FAQs:
What are the differences between Writing & STEM Intensive and Middle Years Intensive?
Writing & STEM Intensive is designed to teach students ages 6 to 12 about the process of writing. Each week, students cover age-appropriate reading skills, writing fundamentals and grammar. This course is designed to help students learn to write flexibly and enthusiastically to prepare them for international school writing programs.
Middle Years Intensive (MYI) will cover the additional writing and analysis skills required by the IB Middle Years Programme and similar programs. Students will learn how to analyze text by professional writers and participate in discussions about those works. These workshops will introduce students to the structure of the MYP Language and Literature program.
