| Description | Sea Bird is the story of the adventures of a carved sea gull over several generations of life at sea. This study group will cover aspects of geography, mapping, literature, reading, writing, natural history, history, language arts, science and more. There will be a special focus on tricky spelling, especially homonyms. There will be weekly reading and homework assignments based on the reading. Participants should expect to spend at least 1-2 hours per week outside of study group time working on these assignments. Assignments will be open ended enough to allow participants to do more or less work according to their age and ability and their parent's wishes. |
