Jump Start to 8th Grade Writing

Grades 7-8

Beat the summer slide and give your rising 8th-grader a running start into the school year with Jump Start writing classes this summer. Over 6 weekly sessions, students will review key building block skills from 7th grade and get advanced practice with the new skills they’ll encounter in the early months of 8th grade this fall.

Jump Start to 8th Grade Writing will emphasize skills for writing well-supported claims in essays and well-developed plots and characters in narratives, preparing students to expand their writing range in the school year to come.
