For #FunFactFriday, let's explore some science!
Did you know the Earth is a magnet? 🌎
Earth has north and south poles and a magnetic field, making it a magnet. That's why compasses point north! 🧭
Earth’s magnetic field is mostly caused by electric currents in the liquid outer core, which is composed of conductive, molten iron.
Science can be a particularly tricky subject for students of ALL ages. The study of science involves a great deal of memorization, analysis, comprehension, and creative thinking.
Science #tutoring can fill in any gaps in scientific knowledge and understanding. Learn more here:

Earlier this month we shared a really commonly misused word on #WordWednesday - qualitative.

Is your student registered to take the AP Exams in May or June? Then now is the time to prepare.
Strong scores on the #APExams can help your student earn college credit or place out of lower level college prerequisites. This means paying less in #tuition and graduating early!
Each AP Exam covers the content of that subject area.
For example, the AP Exam in World History covers the content from the AP course in World History.
With the exception of Studio Art, all of the AP Exams combine multiple-choice questions with an open-response section.
The open-response may be in essay format, problem-solving format, or spoken response.
For AP Studio Art, a student must submit a portfolio for review and scoring.
For more details on each exam, visit www.collegeboard.org, then give us a call at 1-800 CAN LEARN to learn more about how we can help your AP student prepare for AP Exams this year. https://bit.ly/2VbuaUJ #APexam #APprep #huntingtonhelps
Fun fact: Math questions are often easier for students to do when they involve money and real-world situations. 💰
So, here's a word problem to help you practice #fractions and money math with your kids:

If the fridge cost her $150, what were her original savings?

In celebrating World Poetry Day, UNESCO recognizes the unique ability of poetry to capture the creative spirit of the human mind. A decision to proclaim March 21st as World Poetry Day was adopted during UNESCO's 30th session held in Paris in 1999.
Practiced throughout history – in every culture and on every continent – poetry speaks to our common humanity and our shared values, transforming the simplest of poems into a powerful catalyst for dialogue and peace.
Here at Huntington, we love poems by Maya Angelou! 'On the Pulse of Morning' and 'Amazing Peace' are two we love to read.
Who is your favorite poet?
