COMMUNITY PARTNER INFORMATION:
Organization:
Carpentor Co-op Home Work Club
Description:
The mandate of my homework/mentoring club is to help young girls in grades 7 and 8 overcome their fear and anxiety of learning mathematics and eventually become proficient at it. The program allows these girls to appreciate math by involving them in cool-fun-math activities, through which their overall perspective of math will eventually change. It is also to conduct a dialogue so as to discuss everyday peer group and impulse control issues. Essentially, the purpose of our organization is for our girls to achieve both an intellectual growth as well as emotional and social growth. The goal is to build self-esteem and confidence.
