Summer
Math Rocks!
Dear Students:
Besides learning math this summer, there are other skills that are important for students to learn in order to be
successful in school, college, and careers. These “21st Century Skills” include:
 Planning and Problem Solving
 Communication
 Collaboration
 Creativity and Innovation
 Leadership
Each week we will be asking you to complete a reflection on how you’ve done with these important skills so you
can learn and grow during our Summer Math Camp program. Teachers will meet with you every week to go over
the information and help you think about your skills.
Thank you for your honest reflections, and for all your hard work!
