High Schoolers – Weimar Insititute wants to hear from you!
Weimar Institute, a self supporting Seventh-day Adventist college in California, is in the process of evaluating new degree program options for strategic planning purposes. Weimar Institute would like to survey Adventist homeschool high school students to find out if any of the programs they are considering would be of interest to them.
Adventist homeschool high school students are of particular importance to Weimar because a very large percentage of our college students were homeschooled for much or all of their education before coming to college at Weimar.
All Adventist homeschoolers in grades 9-12 are invited to participate in Weimar’s online survey found HERE: https://www.surveymonkey.com/ r/T9H9B2M The questionnaire takes 5-7 minutes to complete and is confidential.
This is an excellent opportunity for high schoolers to let their voice be heard! Please share with the Adventist homeschool high schoolers you know and encourage them to participate.

“Tell the World” shares the compelling story of a small group of farmers from the northeast region of the United States who would go on to set the foundation of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Since the 19th century, the Church has been at the forefront of matters relating to health, education, communication and Biblical interpretation.

Free Online Math Manipulative Apps
Manipulatives make math more accessible for children, especially for hands-on and visual learners. Often an abstract concept becomes more concrete for a child when they have the opportunity to build their number sense with tangible items.
These free math manipulative apps from The Math Learning Center are handy tools for a variety of math applications. Ten different apps are available, from pattern shapes, to an interactive number line , ten frames and more. The apps are not only available for Apple/Windows and Chrome, they are also available as web apps for those not using a tablet or smartphone. You can find the manipulatives HERE.
