What's in the Eighth-Grade Kit Eighth grade is the bridge to high school work. Math moves into Algebra 1, and science shifts to physical science. Your child studies Shakespeare through a graphic novel (a format that makes the language more accessible), works on creative writing, and builds vocabulary through word roots. STEM includes aviation fundamentals and hands-on projects building mechanical circuits. Classic and nonreligious kits differ in history and include an additional science resource in the classic kit. Compare tiers below to see what’s included, and use the customizer to swap anything that isn’t the right fit. 3 Top Features of our Eighth-Grade Curriculum Kits Well-rounded curriculum: Our curriculum kits include a variety of resources that meet or exceed most state standards Hands-on learning: Each Eighth-Grade kit includes a variety of material and hands-on activities that help students learn in a fun and engaging way Flexibility: Every kit can be customized to meet the needs of individual students.
