Mid Level Online Tournaments
5 Subject Area Tournaments for $110.00
75-100 questions per tournament
Mid Level Online tournaments are for students in 7th and 8th grade. 80% of the material will follow the PASS/Core curriculum guidelines. 20% of the questions will be from other resources and from material the writers determine a student in these grades would or should have had some exposure.
Below are some Humanities links for general art and music. They are geared more toward elementary students, but would be a good starting point for your Mid Level students, too.
Humanities, especially for this age group, seems to be a difficult area for which to find resources. Below are some links to other web resources I have found.
