Here’s what will be happening at Options Solutions next week:
Intro to University Level Writing
This course prepares soon-to-be post-secondary students for the challenges of writing at the university level. We will discuss strategies for successful research, critical thinking, and writing while giving students a chance to practice these skills and receive individualized feedback. Materials will be provided. This course will be held from Monday, August 9 – Thursday, August 12 from 10am-12pm.
Calculus 12
This workshop provides an overview of functions, limits, and differential/integral calculus that allows students to approach the school year with confidence. Concepts in Calculus 12 can sometimes take a longer time to understand, so this boot camp allows students to avoid feeling overwhelmed at the start of the school year. The instructor works to explain the origins of calculus and simplify the material, demonstrating its relationship to real-world topics. This course will be held from Monday, August 9 – Friday, August 13 from 10am-1pm.
Physics 12
Physics 12 covers some of the same material as Physics 11, but in greater depth. Topics include projectile motion, dynamics, universal gravitation, circular and rotational motion, static equilibrium, fields, electrostatics, circuitry, and magnetism. The workshop reinforces key ideas from Physics 11, focuses on concept-based learning, and previews the concepts and mathematical equations that are essential to mastering grade 12 physics. This 4-course session will be held each Monday in August from 10am-1pm.
Chemistry 12
This boot camp previews Chemistry 12, which focuses on chemical reactions. Topics covered include reaction kinetics, chemical equilibrium, solution chemistry, acids and bases, and electrochemistry. The goal is for students to have a clear understanding of principles and theory so that they are prepared for the rigorous grade 12 curriculum. This 4-course session will be held on August 11, 18, 25, and September 1 from 10am-1pm.
