IDEATE Workshops
Current Workshops
IDEATE MathCamp
Specifically targeted to elementary school children to gain a conceptual understanding and the “whys” of math, and to middle school children as they prepare for algebra, IDEATE MathCamp is based on the YouCubed® curriculum developed by Dr. Jo Boaler and a team of educators at Stanford University.
IDEATE is designed to inspire and boost math achievement for students of a wide array of backgrounds and skill levels. Students will work in groups, build and utilize visualizations, explore mathematical ideas and learn in both indoor and outdoor spaces. The curriculum is uniquely designed to challenge young minds while building confidence and making math fun.
Studies have shown that children often first experience math anxiety in middle school with the introduction of algebra and timed testing (Schwartz, 2001; Silva & White, 2013). Our goal is to help curb this anxiety with a fun and enriching curriculum that fosters exploration, creativity, teamwork and confidence.
Coming Soon
Financial Literacy for Teens
Financial literacy is crucial to equip young adults with the knowledge and skills needed to make informed and effective decisions about money. Our curriculum will cover important topics such as budgeting, credit vs. debit, the basics of saving and investing, how to make informed consumer choices, and more. This workshop is specifically for teenagers, from upper middle school through high school.
Cross-Disciplinary Workshops
IDEATE is hard at work on innovative workshops that extend into additional disciplines — including civics and the humanities. Follow us on Instagram for the latest updates to our offerings.
