Beginning Reading The KnowledgePoints Reading Program focuses on the skill areas of
phonics, sight vocabulary, functional vocabulary, comprehension, and
oral reading. Our tutors employ a wide variety of lessons and formats
in order to provide reading help and cater to the individual learning
style of each student Phonics - Phonics skills are the cornerstone of reading, enabling students to accurately sound out words they have not already memorized. Sight Vocabulary - Sight words, or words that children should instantly recognize by the end of 3rd grade, are taught. This reading skill aids in accuracy and fluency in both silent and oral reading. Functional Vocabulary - Students gain the ability to recognize the meanings of words by learning reading skills related to the use of synonyms, antonyms, affixes, multi-meaning words, and appropriate word choices in the context of phrases, sentences, and paragraphs. Comprehension - To help students learn how to derive meaning from what they are reading, four specific skill areas are focused on: information, generalization, organization and inference. These four reading skills, when learned together, will dramatically raise your child's comprehension of written school materials. Oral Reading - Students are asked to read orally on a regular basis.
Through repetition and practice, tutors provide reading help which
solidifies accuracy, fluency and self-confidence in reading skills Once students gain the confidence and mastery of math skills in the Basic Math Program, they are ready to embark onto new challenges in our Pre-algebra Program. This program bridges the gap from basic math help to algebra by offering students algebra-readiness skills. Students will learn how to read, write, and understand the unique language of mathematics so they will be prepared for every type of problem-solving and assessment situation. The Pre-algebra Program affords students the opportunity to spend the necessary time on these important skills areas to ensure success in algebra. Some of the pre-algebra skills taught in this program include: integers,
equations, factors and fractions, rational numbers, ratio, percent
and proportion, equations and inequalities, functions and graphing,
right triangles, two-dimensional figures, three-dimensional figures,
statistics and probability, polynomials and nonlinear functions, variables,
and exponents and powers KnowledgePoints Learning Centers offer an extensive Algebra Program which teaches the math skills and concepts students need to succeed in high school and beyond. Once students have completed and mastered basic math skills and have a solid understanding of pre-algebra concepts, they can move on to algebra help. Students will learn, practice, and master the computational algebra skills necessary for successfully applying logical thinking and practicality in school-related algebra courses. The algebra skills and strategies taught in the Algebra Program include: the language of algebra, real numbers, linear equations, linear inequalities, polynomials, factoring, quadratic functions, exponential functions, rational equations, radical expressions, statistics, and probability. Our tutors provide the algebra help needed for mastery of advanced math skills. Writing Whether you have an aspiring journalist or your child is experiencing difficulty in basic writing skills, KnowledgePoints will help your child develop the skills to prepare them to write their own future. Three writing workshop programs are currently being offered at your local KnowledgePoints: 3rd – 5th Grades
The KnowledgePoints Study Skills Program helps students in grades 4-8 with the following strategies: understanding textbooks, taking notes in class, effective study time and habits, reading and taking notes, understanding graphic aids, memory of important information, preparing for and taking tests, solving math word problems, using the library, using the Internet, using reference sources, and writing research papers.

- Did you know that over the two-month summer break,
your child’s test scores can be reduced by one month! Taken
over the entire period from kindergarten to 12th grade, summer
learning loss can equal a full year or more of education. Dr.
Harris Cooper, PhD social Psychology, Duke University, estimates
that loses in mathematical computation skills over the summer
months can be approximately 2.6 months of grade equivalency. Call to enroll now for the next class! Space is limited!
